"A Tanító / Pompei utolsó éje" by Andor Kapos and Ákos Horváth is a dramatic work comprised of a one-act play and a verse tragedy, likely written in the early 20th century. The first part revolves around János, a stern schoolteacher, alongside his family, navigating the challenges of parenting and societal expectations in a small town. The contrasting setting of the second part takes place in Pompeii just before the eruption of Mount Vesuvius, focusing on themes of love and impending doom. The beginning of the text introduces János, who is deeply entrenched in his role as both a father and a teacher, displaying a strict demeanor with his children, particularly Riza and Jenő, while his wife, Ida, reflects on their lost youth and spousal tenderness. The opening suggests a stark division between duty and desire, as János' authoritative outlook clashes with more frivolous elements of youth represented by Riza's interests, such as reading romantic novels. Parallelly, the verse tragedy transports readers to the bustling social atmosphere of pre-eruption Pompeii, where characters engage in revelry amidst foreshadowing disaster, introducing a tense backdrop to themes of fleeting pleasure and emotional turmoil. This duality sets the stage for a rich exploration of human relationships against contrasting fates. (This is an automatically generated summary.) Reading ease score: 71.1 (7th grade).
