Adelgitha; or, The Fruits of a Single Error is a gripping tragedy by Matthew Lewis that explores the harrowing tale of a fallen woman ensnared by the ruthless machinations of a tyrant after rejecting his advances. Set against the backdrop of Otranto during the High Middle Ages, the play intertwines historical figures with themes of treachery, blackmail, and despair, making it a quintessential Gothic drama.
