Book Overview

""Hermon Prince of Choraea, or The Extravagant Zealot: A Tragedy"" is a play written by Michael Clancy in 1746. The story follows the titular character, Hermon, who is a prince of Choraea and a devout follower of a religious sect. Hermon's zealousness leads him to commit heinous acts, including the murder of his own brother, in the name of his beliefs. The play explores themes of fanaticism, power, and the consequences of blind devotion. It is a tragedy that delves into the destructive nature of extremism and the toll it takes on individuals and society as a whole.
