Více o knize

Set in ancient Mexico, this tragic play explores the tumultuous struggle for power and survival faced by Montezuma, the Aztec emperor, and his wife Zempoalla during the Spanish conquest led by Hernán Cortés. John Dryden, a prominent playwright of the English Restoration, weaves themes of love, betrayal, and the clash of cultures into a gripping narrative that highlights the personal and political turmoil of its characters.
