Wallenstein - Ein Dramatisches Gedicht

Wallenstein - Ein dramatisches Gedicht

by Friedrich Schiller

Wallenstein ist ein episches Drama, das die Geschichte des berühmten Feldherrn Albrecht von Wallenstein während des Dreißigjährigen Krieges erzählt. Schiller schildert Wallensteins Aufstieg und Fall, seine ambivalente Persönlichkeit und sein tragischer Konflikt zwischen Loyalität zum Kaiser und persönlichen Ehrgeiz. Die Trilogie umfasst die Stücke „Wallensteins Lager“, „Die Piccolomini“ und „Wallensteins Tod“, die jeweils einen Aspekt von Wallensteins Schicksal und den politischen und militärischen Intrigen seiner Zeit beleuchten. Schillers Werk zeichnet sich durch seine komplexen Figuren, fesselnde Dialoge und die kraftvolle Darstellung historischer Ereignisse aus. Das Drama beleuchtet Themen wie Macht, Verrat, Moral und das menschliche Schicksal im Kontext von Krieg und politischer Instabilität.
