About This Book

Il dramma in quattro atti presenta il contrasto fra la vanità ambiziosa di un giovane di bella presenza e la bontà umile di una donna semplice, attorno a cui ruotano figure emarginate come un uomo deforme e un vecchio mendicante. Lo sviluppo mette in luce l'effetto salvifico della compassione: la donna, in una veggente follia, compie un estremo sacrificio sparendo nel mare, gesto che provoca una riscossa morale nel giovane arrogante e lega i personaggi in una trama di redenzione, pietà e critica della megalomania.
