Beskrivelse af The Bruciad
The Bruciad is an epic poem written by John Harvey and published in 1769. The poem is divided into six books and tells the story of the Brucian people, a fictional tribe from ancient Italy. The Brucians are portrayed as a noble and virtuous people who are fiercely independent and devoted to their homeland. The poem follows their struggles against the invading Roman army, led by the famous general Scipio Africanus. The Bruciad is written in a grand and elevated style, with vivid descriptions of battles, heroic deeds, and the natural world. It is also notable for its use of classical mythology and allusions to ancient literature. The poem was well-received in its time and is considered an important example of 18th-century epic poetry.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
