Dramas Of The Ancient World is a book written by David Lyndsay and originally published in 1822. This book is a collection of three plays that are set in different ancient civilizations: ''The Fall of Nineveh'', ''The Death of Socrates'', and ''The Siege of Jerusalem''. The first play, ''The Fall of Nineveh'', is set in ancient Assyria and tells the story of the city’s downfall due to its corruption and decadence. The second play, ''The Death of Socrates'', is set in ancient Greece and portrays the final moments of the philosopher Socrates, who was sentenced to death for his beliefs. The third play, ''The Siege of Jerusalem'', is set in ancient Israel and depicts the siege of the city by the Romans in 70 AD.Each play in this book offers a unique perspective on the ancient world and explores themes such as power, morality, and justice. Lyndsay’s writing is characterized by his use of vivid imagery and well-crafted dialogue, which brings the characters and settings to life.Overall, Dramas Of The Ancient World is a fascinating and thought-provoking book that offers a glimpse into the cultures and societies of the past. It is a must-read for anyone interested in history, literature, or drama.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
