Das Liebeskonzil: Eine Himmels-Tragödie in fünf Aufzügen by Oskar Panizza
"Das Liebeskonzil: Eine Himmels-Tragödie in fünf Aufzügen" by Oskar Panizza is a satirical drama written in 1894. This radical anti-Catholic satire depicts a senile God, debile Christ, and jaded Virgin Mary striking a deal with the Devil to punish humanity's sins. The Devil's solution: creating syphilis and unleashing it through an irresistible woman who infects the papal court. The blasphemous work landed Panizza in prison for a year and sparked Germany's biggest
literary scandal of the 1890s. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
