Joan Queralt Gil "Gala Placidia: Tragedia en tres actes" by Àngel Guimerà is a dramatic play written in the late 19th century. This tragedy is rooted in historical events, focusing on the life of Gala Placidia, the Roman empress and daughter of Emperor Theodosius. The narrative traverses her complex relationships, mainly with her husband, the Gothic king Ataulf, setting the stage for themes of love, power, and ethnic strife. The opening of the play introduces the setting in Barcelona in the year 416, emphasizing the tension between the Goths and Romans. The first act unfolds within the chamber of King Ataulf, who grapples with the pressures of leadership and his love for Placidia. The dialogues reveal the backdrop of political intrigue, with characters expressing their loyalties and conflicts. Ataulf's interactions with the newly introduced characters, such as Sigerich—who seems to bear a grudge against Roman authority—foreshadow the turbulent emotional landscape that will evolve throughout the tragedy. The act concludes with a sense of foreboding regarding the fate of Placidia and the Gothic realm, hinting at deeper betrayals and conflicts that lie ahead.
