Book Overview

The Tocsin: A Drama Of The Renaissance is a play written by Esther Brown Tiffany and published in 1909. The story is set during the Renaissance period and revolves around the character of Lorenzo de' Medici, the ruler of Florence. The play explores the political and social turmoil of the time, including the conflict between the Medici family and the Pazzi family. The Tocsin refers to the alarm bell that was rung to alert the citizens of Florence to danger, and the play uses this symbol to represent the impending danger and chaos that threatens the city. The drama features a cast of historical figures, including Leonardo da Vinci, Savonarola, and Botticelli. The play is a vivid portrayal of the Renaissance era, with its focus on art, politics, and religion. It is a compelling story of power, betrayal, and redemption, and remains a classic piece of literature that captures the essence of the Renaissance period.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
