Synopsis

Excerpt from The Cenci a Tragedy in Five Acts

It is almost needless to say that tragedies answering satisfactorily this severe test are of extreme rarity. Among dramas of the nineteenth century one looks in vain for an acted tragedy fulfilling the conditions; and the unacted drama yields but one example - that tragedy. Which Shelley wrote for the stage and greatly wished to have upon the stage, but which has been reserved during sixty-seven years for a Society of his special adherents to get acted.
