Broken Heart stands alongside ‘Tis Pity Shes a Whore as one of Fords most celebrated dramas. Set against the turbulent backdrop of Sparta, this tragedy unravels the complications of love and marriage. Penthea yearns to marry Orgilus, but her brother Ithocles intervenes, prohibiting their union and forcing her into a marriage with the abusive yet affluent Bassanes. As Ithocles grapples with the repercussions of his actions, he attempts to mend the situation by arranging a marriage between Orgilus and his sister, Euphrania. Meanwhile, Ithocles himself is drawn to the beautiful princess of Sparta, Calantha, who must choose between him and her cousin Nearchus. This intricate web of desire, betrayal, and revenge spirals into a shocking series of events with devastating outcomes. (Charlotte Duckett & ChuckW)Copyright Short Stories アート 戯曲・演劇 文学史・文学批評
