Summary | "Jeppe sur la Monto; aŭ la Transformita Kamparano" by Ludvig Holberg is a comedic play written in the early 18th century. The story centers on Jeppe, a poor farmer who is largely dominated and mistreated by his wife, Nille, and lives in a drunken stupor as a response to his difficult life. This drama explores themes of class disparity, marriage, and the folly of social aspirations through humorous and satirical elements. At the start of the play, we are introduced to Jeppe, who struggles to rise out of slumber at the insistence of his wife, Nille. She expresses her frustration over his laziness, noting he is too busy sleeping through the workday. Jeppe is caught in a cycle of self-pity, blaming his circumstances and his wife's harsh treatment for his drinking habits. The opening scenes effectively set the tone for both the character dynamics at play and Jeppe's unfortunate fate as he reluctantly prepares to travel to the town to buy soap, a journey fraught with personal conflict and comedic instances that hint at the absurdity of his situation. The vivid portrayal of their relationship, alongside Jeppe's disillusionment, establishes a foundation for his impending transformation throughout the story.
