Egmont: Viisinäytöksinen murhenäytelmä by Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

"Egmont: Viisinäytöksinen murhenäytelmä" by Johann Wolfgang von Goethe is a tragedy written between 1775 and 1788. Set in Brussels during the early years of the Eighty Years' War, the play follows Count Egmont as he navigates the dangerous political landscape of Spanish-ruled Netherlands. While Willem van Oranje flees to safety, the popular but trusting Egmont underestimates the threat posed by the ruthless Duke of Alva, refusing to abandon his people despite mounting warnings of his impending arrest.
