John Inglesant, A Romance

John Inglesant, a Romance

by Joseph Henry Shorthouse

John Inglesant is a historical novel that follows the life of a young English Cavalier, John Inglesant, who is deeply influenced by the religious fervor and turmoil of the 17th century. The novel explores themes of faith, loyalty, and self-discovery as Inglesant navigates the complexities of his own religious beliefs, the political upheaval of the English Civil War, and the seductive allure of the Italian Renaissance. Through Inglesant's journey, the novel examines the clash between reason and faith, the tension between personal desires and societal expectations, and the enduring power of love in the face of adversity.
