Sinopsis
"Proserpine & Midas" is a play written by Mary Shelley, best known for her classic novel "Frankenstein." Although Mary Shelley is primarily recognized for her contributions to Gothic fiction, she also wrote poetry and drama throughout her literary career. "Proserpine & Midas" is a two-act verse drama that draws upon classical mythology for its subject matter. Proserpine, also known as Persephone, is a figure from Greek mythology who was abducted by the god of the underworld, Hades, and became the queen of the underworld. Midas, on the other hand, is known for his golden touch, a gift granted to him by the god Dionysus. In Shelley's play, the characters of Proserpine and Midas are brought together in a dramatic exploration of themes such as power, desire, and the consequences of one's actions. The play likely reflects Shelley's interest in mythology and her engagement with the literary and philosophical trends of her time.

Proserpine & Midas : Myth and Morality: A Journey Through Desire and Destiny
Impresión bajo demandaLibrería: AHA-BUCH GmbH, Einbeck, Alemania
Calificación del vendedor: 5 de 5 estrellas
Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - What happens when mythological figures are reimagined through the lens of a literary genius 'Proserpine & Midas' by Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley offers a transformative exploration of classical mythology, set against the backdrop of early 19th-century Romanticism. The narrative unfolds in a world where gods and mortals coexist, each grappling with their desires and destinies. Proserpine, the goddess of spring, finds herself torn between the allure of the underworld and the vibrancy of the earth above. Her story is one of duality, reflecting themes of rebirth and the cyclical nature of life. Meanwhile, King Midas, known for his insatiable greed, learns the true cost of his wish for gold. His tale serves as a cautionary reflection on the perils of avarice and the pursuit of material wealth. Shelley's work delves into the human condition, using these mythological tales to mirror the complexities of human emotions and societal norms. The text is imbued with the Romantic era's fascination with nature, emotion, and the sublime, offering readers a glimpse into the philosophical inquiries of the time. Through her vivid storytelling, Shelley invites readers to ponder the consequences of their choices and the eternal struggle between desire and duty. By weaving together these timeless myths, 'Proserpine & Midas' provides a narrative that is both entertaining and thought-provoking. It challenges readers to consider the balance between change and contentment, and the eternal dance between light and darkness. This book offers a journey into the heart of mythology, revealing the enduring relevance of these ancient stories in understanding our own lives. Nº de ref. del artículo: 9791041996681
