Omschrijving

The Collegians, also known as The Colleen Bawn, is a novel written by Gerald Griffin in 1829. The story is set in Ireland during the 19th century and follows the tragic love story of Hardress Cregan, a wealthy gentleman, and Eily O'Connor, a poor but beautiful young woman. Hardress is engaged to Anne Chute, a woman of his own social standing, but he falls in love with Eily when he meets her by chance. Eily is the daughter of a poor farmer and is being forced into a marriage with a cruel and abusive man, Danny Mann, by her stepmother. Hardress promises to help Eily escape from her predicament, but his plan goes awry, leading to a series of tragic events.The novel explores themes of love, class, and morality, and is known for its vivid descriptions of Irish life and culture during the time period. The Collegians is considered a classic of Irish literature and has been adapted into several plays and films.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
