Gebir by Walter Savage Landor

First published in 1798 when Landor was just twenty-four, Gebir is the story of an Iberian prince who invades Egypt in order to rebuild the city of his ancestors and falls in love with Queen Charoba. Supernatural forces thwart his every attempt to rebuild, and he must descend to the underworld before fulfilling his tragic destiny. In addition to the full text of the revised 1803 edition of Gebir, this volume includes Landor's "Postscript to Gebir", two other epic poems based on ancient legends composed around the same time, the short poem "Apology for Gebir", and a critical introduction by the editor.
