König Ottokars Glück und Ende by Franz Grillparzer

"König Ottokars Glück und Ende" by Franz Grillparzer is a tragedy written in 1823. Based on the historical King Ottokar II of Bohemia, the play chronicles a powerful monarch's dramatic fall from greatness. Through his own flawed decisions—divorcing his wife, alienating supporters, and losing the Holy Roman Emperor crown to a rival—Ottokar descends from the height of power toward ruin. Grillparzer originally planned to write about Napoleon but chose this medieval king instead, finding striking parallels between the two figures. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
