Overview
The Ice Lens is a four-act play written by George Frederick Gundelfinger in 1919. The play is centered around the theme of academic immoralities and follows the story of a group of university professors who engage in unethical behavior to further their careers. The play's title is derived from a scientific experiment involving the use of an ice lens to magnify objects. The main character, Professor John Hargrave, is a respected academic who becomes embroiled in a scandal when he is accused of plagiarism. As the play unfolds, the audience is introduced to a cast of characters who are all connected to the scandal in some way. The play explores themes of ambition, jealousy, and the corrupting influence of power. The Ice Lens is a thought-provoking and engaging work that offers a critical commentary on the world of academia and the ethical dilemmas faced by those who seek to succeed within it.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
