Herodes und Mariamne: Eine Tragödie in fünf Akten
"Herodes und Mariamne: Eine Tragödie in fünf Akten" by Friedrich Hebbel is a dramatic work written in the mid-19th century. The tragedy unfolds against the backdrop of Jerusalem around the time of Christ's birth, centering on the tumultuous relationship between King Herodes and his wife Mariamne, alongside the intrigues of their court involving family tensions, political plots, and themes of love and betrayal. The opening of the play introduces a tense atmosphere in Herodes' court, where he deals with the fallout from a recent catastrophe—a fire that broke out and may have claimed lives. As characters such as Joab, Sameas, and Judas engage in dialogue, it becomes clear that Herodes is preoccupied with maintaining his power amidst threats from the Pharisees and internal dissent. The discussion suggests ominous tensions involving Mariamne, hints of her defiance, and Herodes' struggle to balance love for his wife with his ruthless political ambitions. Through this setup, Hebbel establishes a gripping narrative of loyalty, fear, and the tragic consequences of power, showcasing the complexities of the relationships between the characters, especially between Herodes and Mariamne.
