Produced by Jonathan Ingram and the Online Distributed Proofreading Team at http://www.pgdp.net "The Loyal Subject" by Francis Beaumont et al. is a tragicomedy written in the early 17th century. Set in the fictional court of Moscovia, the play explores themes of loyalty, honor, and the complexities of human relationships against the backdrop of political intrigue and familial discord. The central character, Archas, a loyal general, grapples with his personal vow of devotion to a prince while dealing with the treachery that threatens his standing and life. At the start of the play, we are introduced to various characters including Archas, who faces turmoil as he resigns from military leadership due to a broken promise to remain loyal. His son, Theodore, expresses frustration over his father's decision, hinting at the discontent among the soldiers who refuse to fight without their beloved general. Amidst this tension, the characters of Olympia and Alinda enter, carrying their own motivations and desires, while the Duke’s manipulative counselor, Boroskie, schemes. The opening scenes set the stage for a rich tapestry of dialogue that reflects the societal expectations and tensions of noble life, as well as the intertwining destinies of its characters.
