| Summary | "Poetical Works of Robert Bridges, Volume 4" by Robert Bridges is a collection of dramatic poetry written in the late 19th to early 20th century. This volume features two primary works, "Palicio," a romantic drama in the Elizabethan style, and "The Return of Ulysses," both of which delve into themes of love, power, and rebellion amid the political backdrop of Sicily. Bridges's poetry often reflects a classical sensibility, exploring the nuances of human emotion and societal conflict. At the start of "Palicio," we're introduced to the political unrest in Sicily during the Spanish occupation, with characters entangled in a web of power struggles. The scene is set in a reception room in Palermo, where various nobles discuss the rising tensions that threaten the viceroy, Hugo. The narrative hints at the character of Giovanni Palicio, a brigand who becomes central to the conflict, while also highlighting the personal dramas of Duke Philip and Manuel, who are entangled with the noble women, Margaret and Constance. This opening establishes not only a rich political landscape but also the intertwining of personal and public stakes, setting the stage for upcoming clashes between tyranny and rebellion.
