William Philips

Hibernia Freed: A Tragedy is a play written by William Philips and first published in 1722. The play is set in Ireland during the reign of Queen Elizabeth I and tells the story of the conflict between the Irish and English. The play follows the character of O'Neil, an Irish leader who is torn between his loyalty to his country and his desire for peace. He seeks to unite the Irish clans and fight against English oppression, but is ultimately betrayed by his own people and captured by the English. The play explores themes of nationalism, betrayal, and the struggle for freedom. It is considered a significant work in Irish literature and history, as it reflects the tensions and conflicts that existed between the Irish and English during this time period.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
