Summary: "Prometheus ontboeid: Een lyrisch drama in vier bedrijven" by Percy Bysshe Shelley is a lyrical drama written in the early 19th century. This poetic work explores themes of oppression, suffering, and the quest for enlightenment through the mythological figure of Prometheus, who defies the gods to give fire and knowledge to humanity. The narrative portrays the character of Prometheus, bound and tormented by Jupiter, symbolizing the struggle against tyranny and the enduring nature of hope and love. The opening of this drama introduces Prometheus, bound in a desolate ravine as he laments his eternal suffering under Jupiter's tyranny. He expresses despair but also a fierce determination to endure, highlighting the tension between the sovereign power of the gods and the plight of humankind. Accompanied by the spirits of the Earth and two sea nymphs, Panthea and Ione, Prometheus evokes the forces of nature in his sorrowful plight while yearning for a revelation that may ultimately liberate him and humanity. The stage is set for a profound exploration of themes such as love and redemption, as well as the powerful struggle against oppressive rule. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
