Summary: "Der G'wissenswurm: Bauernkomödie in drei Akten" by Ludwig Anzengruber is a comedic play written during the late 19th century. The story unfolds in a rural setting, focusing on the life and struggles of the wealthy farmer Grillhofer as he grapples with his conscience and the influences of those around him, particularly his scheming brother-in-law, Nikodemi Dusterer. At the start of the play, readers are introduced to a lively ensemble of characters, including Grillhofer, who is in a dismal mood, and his loyal servants Wastl and Rosl. The dialogue reveals that Grillhofer feels burdened by guilt over his past sins and is determined to amend his ways, influenced by Dusterer, who serves as a manipulative force urging him to focus on repentance. As Grillhofer navigates the complexities of his relationships while unwittingly creating comedic situations, the stage is set for a comedic exploration of morality, human folly, and the quest for redemption in a provincial backdrop.
