Summary: "Ο Γήταυρος" by Rigas Golfis is a drama written in the early 20th century. This work is significant in Greek literature as it is tied to the burgeoning socialist themes emerging at the time, resonating with ideals of social change and class struggle.

The opening of the drama introduces us to the household of Φιντής, a factory owner, who interacts with various characters, including the mechanical worker and members of his family. Tensions arise as the characters discuss the state of the factory and the working conditions, highlighting the oppressive dynamics present between the wealthy and their workers. Τhe presence of the young girl Αννούλα adds a layer of innocence to the unfolding drama, as she navigates her emotions in the shadow of her family's strife, particularly concerning her brother Σταύρος, who has left the household. The dialogue reveals conflicts of ideology and the stark realities of class relationships, setting the stage for deeper explorations of personal and social issues that are likely to develop throughout the play.
