T. (Samuel Taylor) The Death of Wallenstein Wikipedia page about this book: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wallenstein_(trilogy_of_plays) Produced by Tapio Riikonen and David Widger "The Death of Wallenstein" by Friedrich Schiller is a historical drama written in the early 19th century. The play revolves around the figure of Albrecht von Wallenstein, a powerful general in the Thirty Years' War whose ambition leads him to contemplate treason against the Holy Roman Emperor. As Wallenstein navigates the treacherous political landscape, tensions rise not only with the imperial court but also within his troops, creating a gripping atmosphere of betrayal and moral conflict. At the start of the play, we meet Wallenstein as he engages in astrological practices, reflecting on the alignment of celestial bodies and their implications for his ambitious plans. The opening scenes introduce key characters, including Count Terzky and Field-Marshal Illo, who bring urgent news of treachery when a crucial ally, Sesina, has been captured by the Emperor's agents. This news sparks intense discussions about Wallenstein's loyalty and his precarious position as he grapples with the reality that the army might abandon him. The plot thickens with Wallenstein contemplating a shift in allegiance to the Swedish forces as he struggles with his inner turmoil and the danger of being labeled a traitor.
