| Summary | "John Inglesant: A Romance (Volume 2 of 2)" by J. H. Shorthouse is a historical novel written in the late 19th century. The story follows the journey of the titular character, John Inglesant, as he navigates through various cities in Italy, immersing himself in music, art, and complex social dynamics while seeking vengeance for his brother’s murder." "The beginning of the volume unfolds with Inglesant's travels to Genoa and Sienna, where he becomes enchanted by the beauty of Italy and deepens his understanding of art and music under the guidance of Jesuit priests. He spends time with the noble Chigi family and learns about the political intrigues surrounding the Papacy, setting a tone of impending conflict. Despite enjoying the splendor and culture, a sense of inner turmoil haunts Inglesant, especially as he grapples with the weight of his past and the moral ramifications of seeking revenge. His interactions with various eccentric characters and reflections on his choices hint at the complexities he faces as he becomes entangled in both personal and political matters in a world filled with intrigue and danger."
