The Court of Charles IV: A Romance of the Escorial is a novel written by Spanish author Benito Perez Galdos and originally published in 1888. The book is set in 18th century Spain and follows the story of a young man named Gabriel de Araceli who becomes a member of the court of King Charles IV. Through Gabriel's eyes, the reader is given a glimpse into the complex and often corrupt world of the Spanish royal court, where power struggles, betrayals, and scandals abound. Along the way, Gabriel falls in love with the beautiful and intelligent Ines de Castro, but their relationship is threatened by the machinations of those around them. The novel is a richly detailed and vividly imagined portrait of a fascinating period in Spanish history, and explores themes of love, loyalty, and the corrupting influence of power. It is widely regarded as one of Galdos' most important works, and is considered a masterpiece of Spanish literature.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
