The work of a genius,
By A Customer
This review is from: Don Carlos and Mary Stuart (World's Classics) (Paperback)
It's hard to find words which do justice to these wonderful plays. Schiller is a genius, a german Shakespeare. The plays are full of fascinating characters, deep emotions and humanist ideals. Don't be surprised if you find youself sympathising with and understanding the enemys of the heroes. In Philipp II and Elizabeth I the inner torments of rulers surounded by false friends (Leichester, Alba), idealists(Posa, the spirit of liberty and friendship) and caught in there own fears, hopes and loves is poignantly illustrated. All in wonderfull words - read it in german if you possibly can! If you can't, DON'T miss it in english!!! You may find yourself identifying the situations in your life with those of the characters. These are plays to read over and over - always something new and worthwhile to discover.
