Nathan Viisas: Viisinäytöksinen näytelmäruno by Gotthold Ephraim Lessing
"Nathan Viisas: Viisinäytöksinen näytelmäruno" by Gotthold Ephraim Lessing is a play written in 1779. Set in Jerusalem during the Third Crusade, it follows Nathan, a wealthy Jewish merchant, as he navigates religious divides between Judaism, Islam, and Christianity. When Sultan Saladin tests Nathan's wisdom by asking which religion is true, Nathan responds with the famous "Ring Parable." Personal connections emerge that bind the characters across faiths, leading to revelations about family, identity,
and the power of tolerance over dogma. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
