Judas Iscariot is a play by Richard Henry Horne.
Editions and translations
Published in England (London: 1848).
Abstract
“A miracle play in two acts.” The author embraced the view of Archbishop Richard Whately (1787-1863) that Judas believed that Jesus, when brought before the Romans, would assert eventually himself to be the true Messiah. Horne, among dramatists, was the first to represent Judas in this more sympathetic view.
