Omschrijving

Nyria is a historical novel written by Australian author Rosa Campbell Praed and published in 1904. The story is set in ancient Rome during the reign of Emperor Nero and follows the life of a young slave girl named Nyria. Nyria is sold into slavery at a young age and is trained as a singer and dancer. She catches the eye of Nero, who takes her as his mistress. Nyria becomes entangled in the dangerous and corrupt world of the Roman court, where she must navigate the treacherous politics and power struggles of the emperor's inner circle. As Nyria rises in status and influence, she begins to question the morality of her choices and the consequences of her actions. She also falls in love with a young Roman soldier named Marcus, which complicates her relationship with Nero and puts her in even greater danger. The novel explores themes of power, corruption, love, and morality, and provides a vivid and detailed portrayal of life in ancient Rome. Praed's writing is praised for its historical accuracy and its ability to bring the characters and setting to life. Overall, Nyria is a gripping and thought-provoking novel that offers a fascinating glimpse into the world of ancient Rome.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
