Summary: "O Condenado" by Camilo Castelo Branco is a play written in the late 19th century. This drama unfolds through three acts and four scenes, delving into themes of betrayal, infidelity, and the emotional turmoil of its characters, particularly revolving around the tragic relationship between the main characters, including the Viscount de Vasconcellos and his wife, D. Eugenia. The opening portion of the play establishes a tense atmosphere in the lavish but chaotic home of the Vasconcellos family. The scene begins with two servants discussing their lives and the nature of their work, providing a contrast to the wealth and social status of their masters. As the Viscount enters, he reveals his deep sorrow and discontent with societal events, particularly a forthcoming ball that stirs painful memories. The tension builds when Rodrigo, the Viscount’s son, appears with Pedro Gavião Aranha, a friend from America, indicating a backdrop of relationships steeped in complex emotions. The dialogue hints at past traumas involving betrayal and social expectations, setting the stage for a rich exploration of human emotions and moral dilemmas as the story progresses.
