Chrononhotonthologos the Most Tragical Tragedy That Ever Was Tragedized by Any Company of Tragedians
Henry Carey,Theodore Roosevelt, IV
Chrononhotonthologos is a satirical play written by Henry Carey in the 18th century. The play is a parody of the popular tragic plays of the time and features a nonsensical plot, absurd characters, and comical dialogue. The title itself is a made-up word that is meant to sound grandiose and impressive. The play follows the story of the fictional kingdom of Queerummania, where the king, Chrononhotonthologos, is a tyrant who is obsessed with his own power and status. The play is filled with puns, wordplay, and exaggerated characters, making it a hilarious and entertaining read. Despite its satirical nature, the play also touches on themes of power, corruption, and the absurdity of human nature. Overall, Chrononhotonthologos is a witty and clever play that provides a unique and humorous take on the traditional tragic genre.17th Century work.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
