Mordred And Hildebrand

Mordred and Hildebrand: A Book of Tragedies is a collection of two plays written by William Wilfred Campbell and published in 1895. The first play, Mordred, is a retelling of the Arthurian legend, focusing on the character of Mordred, the illegitimate son of King Arthur who ultimately leads to the downfall of the Round Table. The play explores themes of betrayal, power, and fate. The second play, Hildebrand, is based on a Germanic legend and tells the story of a father and son who unknowingly meet on the battlefield and engage in a fatal duel. Hildebrand explores themes of honor, duty, and family. Both plays are written in verse and showcase Campbell's skill as a poet and dramatist. The book is a notable contribution to Canadian literature and remains a classic in the genre of tragedy.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
