Finnish Fiesko: Historiallinen murhenäytelmä Wikipedia page about this book: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fiesco_(play) E-text prepared by Juha Kiuru and Tapio Riikonen "Fiesko: Historiallinen murhenäytelmä" by Friedrich Schiller is a historical tragedy likely written in the early 19th century. This dramatic work centers around the political intrigues and rivalries in Genoa during a time of turmoil, focusing primarily on the character of Fiesko, the count of Lavagna, who leads a conspiracy against the Genoese dictatorship. The play explores themes of betrayal, ambition, and the complexities of human emotion within a backdrop of shifting political power. The opening of the play establishes a tense atmosphere with an introduction to the main characters and their conflicting desires. Leonoora, Fiesko's wife, expresses her distress over perceived betrayals, particularly concerning her husband’s affections for another woman, Julia. Meanwhile, Gianettino Doria, a rival, conspires against Fiesko, revealing the underlying animosities and intentions of the characters. The backdrop of a masked ball serves to heighten the drama as allegiances and concealed identities play pivotal roles in shaping the events to come. This initial act sets the stage for the tragic unfolding of personal and political conflicts that navigate the delicate balance between honor and treachery in the quest for power.
