Judith: treurspel in vijf bedrijven by Friedrich Hebbel
"Judith: treurspel in vijf bedrijven" by Friedrich Hebbel is a tragedy written in 1840. This biblical drama reimagines the story of the beautiful widow Judith, who enters the enemy camp of the tyrannical general Holofernes during his siege of Bethulia. While her people face starvation and despair, Judith devises a daring plan involving seduction and violence to save them. Hebbel transforms the traditional tale into a psychological exploration of a woman haunted
by her past and conflicted about crossing forbidden boundaries. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
