Valperga: Or, the Life and Adventures of Castruccio, Prince of Lucca (Women Writers in English 1350-1850)

 
Valperga: Or, the Life and Adventures of Castruccio, Prince of Lucca (Women Writers in English 1350-1850)

Description

Valperga, steeped in Mary Shelley's command of local Italian history and culture, offers the vivid pleasures of accomplished historical fiction, while at the same time representing in the clash between Castruccio and euthanasia a struggle between autocracy and liberal democracy that speaks directly to the contemporary political tensions of post-Napoleonic Europe.
