The Cenci is a play written by the English Romantic poet Percy Bysshe Shelley. It is a dramatic retelling of the true story of the Cenci family, an Italian noble family who were accused of murder and incest in the 16th century. The play explores themes of justice, revenge, and the corrupting influence of power. It is divided into five acts and features a cast of complex and morally ambiguous characters, including the patriarch of the Cenci family, his daughter Beatrice, and the hired assassins who carry out the family's gruesome crimes. Shelley's poetic language and vivid imagery bring the story to life, creating a haunting and unforgettable portrait of a family consumed by their own dark desires. The Cenci is considered one of Shelley's most powerful and enduring works, and remains a staple of the Romantic literary canon.THIS 90 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: Modern English Drama: Dryden, Sheridan, Goldsmith, Shelley, Browning, Byron: V18 Harvard Classics, by Percy Bysshe Shelley.
