Love and Intrigue is a play written by German playwright Friedrich von Schiller. The story revolves around the love between Ferdinand, a young aristocrat, and Luise, a middle-class musician's daughter. However, their love is threatened by the class differences and the political intrigues of the court. The play explores themes of love, power, and morality as the characters navigate through the challenges of their society. The story is set in the 18th century and is considered one of Schiller's most important works. It is a tragic play that highlights the consequences of social inequality and the corrupt nature of those in power. Overall, Love and Intrigue is a powerful drama that delves into the complexities of human relationships and societal structures.PRESIDENT (furiously). Insolent villain! Your impertinence shall procure you a lodging in prison. (To his servants). Call in the officers of justice! Away! (Some of the attendants go out. The PRESIDENT paces the stage with a furious air.) The father shall to prison; the mother and her strumpet daughter to the pillory! Justice shall lend her sword to my rage! For this insult will I have ample amends. Shall such contemptible creatures thwart my plans, and set father and son against each other with impunity? Tremble, miscreants! I will glut my hate in your destruction--the whole brood of you--father, mother, and daughter shall be sacrificed to my vengeance!This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
