Alzire first appeared on the stage in 1736 to great acclaim and success. Alzire is set Lima Peru at the time of the Spanish conquest. Don Gusman a Spanish grandee has just succeeded his father Don Alvarez in the Governorship of Peru. The rule of Don Alvarez had been beneficent and just; he had spent his life in endeavoring to soften the cruelty of his countrymen; and his only remaining wish was to see his son carry on the work which he had begun. Unfortunately however Don Gusman's temperament was the very opposite of his father's; he was tyrannical harsh headstrong and bigoted. It is in vain that Don Alvarez reminds his son that the true Christian returns good for evil and as a result tragedy insues.Wilder Publications is a green publisher.
