Miss Sara Sampson by Gotthold Ephraim Lessing
"Miss Sara Sampson" by Gotthold Ephraim Lessing is a bourgeois tragedy written in 1755. Sara has fled with her lover Mellefont to marry in France, leaving her forgiving father behind. But Mellefont's former mistress Marwood arrives with their secret daughter, determined to win him back at any cost. As father pursues daughter and rival confronts rival at an English inn, questions of love, virtue, and forgiveness collide. What begins as a tale
of reconciliation spirals toward tragedy when jealousy and deception poison more than hearts. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
