Credits Produced by Delphine Lettau and Gutenberg Projekt-DE
Summary "Die gefesselte Phantasie" by Ferdinand Raimund is a theatrical play written in the early 19th century. The narrative unfolds in a fantastical world inhabited by gods, magical sisters, and a poetic quest for love and power, revolving primarily around the character Hermione, the Queen of the floral peninsula, and her struggle with the mischievous sorcery that threatens her realm. The opening of the play introduces us to a garden in Hermione's palace, where inhabitants express their distress over the trouble caused by two powerful magical sisters, Vipria and Arrogantia. As the characters gather, they discuss a prophecy from Apollo that foretells doom for their land unless Hermione marries a worthy ruler. Hermione’s reluctance to abandon her vow to marry only a poet heightens the tension, especially as she must navigate the political and romantic expectations placed upon her. The arrival of Amphio, a young shepherd, also complicates the narrative, setting the stage for a showdown between creativity and tyranny as the characters grapple with the challenges posed by the magical sisters.
