Amymone V1: A Romance Of The Days Of Pericles (1848) is a historical romance novel written by Eliza Lynn Linton. The story is set in ancient Greece during the time of Pericles, the famous Athenian statesman and general. The protagonist of the novel is Amymone, a young woman who is forced to flee her home in Sparta after her father is killed in a battle. She seeks refuge in Athens, where she becomes embroiled in the political and social intrigues of the city. Along the way, she falls in love with a young Athenian nobleman named Euthymenes, but their relationship is threatened by the machinations of a jealous rival. The novel is notable for its vivid descriptions of ancient Greek life and culture, as well as its portrayal of strong, independent female characters. It is the first volume in a two-part series, and was well-received by contemporary critics for its engaging plot and colorful characters.In Three Volumes.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
