Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - The Widow Ranter, also known as The History of Bacon in Virginia, is a play written by Aphra Behn. The story takes place in colonial Virginia during the 1670s and is based on the historical events surrounding Nathaniel Bacon's rebellion against Governor William Berkeley. The play follows the character of Bacon, a young and ambitious planter who becomes frustrated with the lack of protection from Native American attacks and the corrupt government. Bacon leads a rebellion against the governor and his loyalists, but ultimately dies before he can achieve his goals. The play also features a love story between Bacon and a young widow named Betty, who becomes caught up in the conflict. The Widow Ranter explores themes of power, corruption, and the struggle for justice in a colonial society. It is considered one of Behn's most significant works and a groundbreaking piece of literature for its portrayal of a strong female character in Betty.King.
