Sinopsis

Pizarro is a historical play written by Richard Brinsley Sheridan, first performed in 1799. The play is set in the 16th century and follows the story of Francisco Pizarro, a Spanish conquistador who led the expedition that conquered the Inca Empire. The play explores themes of power, greed, and betrayal as Pizarro and his men plot to overthrow the Inca ruler Atahualpa and seize control of the empire?s riches. Along the way, they encounter a group of European settlers who have been living peacefully with the Incas and must decide whether to ally with them or turn against them. The play is known for its dramatic plot twists, complex characters, and vivid depictions of the conflict between the Spanish and the Inca. It is considered one of Sheridan?s most successful works and has been adapted for the stage and screen numerous times.Ata. (Draws his sword.) Now, my brethren, my sons, my friends, I know your valour.-- Should ill success assail us, be despair the last feeling of your hearts.--If successful, let mercy be the first. Alonzo, to you I give to defend the narrow passage of the mountains. On the right of the wood be Rolla?s station. For me, strait forwards will I march to meet them, and fight until I see my people saved, or they behold their Monarch fall. Be the word of battle --God! and our native land.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
