A sweeping collection of epic and dramatic verse that blends grand storytelling with intimate, lyrical scenes.
This edition gathers Alberto, an Epic Poem; Delascus, a Dramatic Poem; and a set of Miscellaneous Poems, all by an unknown author. Read across long-form narrative and vivid lyric fragments as characters contend with love, loss, fate, and the mysteries of life and death. The works mingle elevated verse with intense dramatic dialogue, creating a voice that feels both classical and intensely personal.
- Epic and dramatic forms featured side by side, offering variety in mood and scope.
- Themes of love, sacrifice, guilt, and redemption expressed through expressive, story-driven poetry.
- Rich, archaic language and a stage-ready style that evokes a dramatic tradition.
- A mix of longer poems and shorter pieces that invite reflective reading and re-reading.
Ideal for readers drawn to historical poetry, theatrical verse, and poetry that pushes the boundaries between epic narrative and intimate emotion.
