Beskrivelse af Ximenes
Ximenes: A Tragedy is a play written by Percival Stockdale and published in 1788. The play is based on the life of Francisco Jim�����nez de Cisneros, a Spanish cardinal and statesman who served as the Grand Inquisitor of Spain during the late 15th and early 16th centuries.The play follows the rise of Ximenes, a humble monk who becomes a powerful figure in the Spanish court. Ximenes is known for his strict adherence to Catholic doctrine and his efforts to root out heresy and corruption in the church. However, as Ximenes gains more power, he becomes increasingly ruthless and tyrannical, leading to his downfall.The play explores themes of power, corruption, and the dangers of zealotry. It also delves into the complex relationship between religion and politics, and the ways in which religious leaders can become entangled in the affairs of the state.Overall, Ximenes: A Tragedy is a thought-provoking work that offers a fascinating glimpse into the turbulent world of Renaissance Spain.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
