Viac o knihe
Set against a backdrop of political intrigue and romantic entanglements, the narrative explores themes of statesmanship and desire through the misadventures of King Basilius, who misreads an oracle and retreats to the countryside. There, he encounters a cross-dressed Amazon, igniting rivalry with his wife. Meanwhile, disguised suitors Musidorus and Pyrocles court princesses Pamela and Philoclea, while family tensions escalate due to a scheming sister-in-law. Sidney's insights as a courtier enrich this tale of power, love, and civic unrest.
