Character of Rienze Nicholag, a British fenzi Gas figure
A dense eighteenth century portrait of Rienze Nicholag, a republican sympathizer who rises to power in Rome then falls into exile. The narrative covers his early devotion, calculated daring, tribunate, and eventual tyrant’s return. It notes his fame among Italy’s rulers, eventual capture, and a brutal execution. The piece links his likeness to a tragedy shown in Paris and sparks a propaganda backlash by demagogues who destroyed the mirror in rage.
