Antiope: A Tragedy is a play written by Rebecca Sophia Ross in 1880. The story is set in ancient Greece and revolves around Antiope, the queen of the Amazons. Antiope is captured by Theseus, the king of Athens, who falls in love with her. However, Antiope is torn between her love for Theseus and her loyalty to her people. The play explores themes of love, loyalty, and the struggle for power. The characters are well-developed, and the dialogue is poetic and dramatic. The play is a classic tragedy, and the ending is both heartbreaking and poignant. Overall, Antiope: A Tragedy is a beautifully written play that is sure to captivate readers interested in ancient Greek mythology and tragic drama.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
