Die Braut von Messina by Friedrich Schiller

"Die Braut von Messina" by Friedrich Schiller is a tragedy with choruses written in 1803. Two hostile brothers reconcile after years of conflict, only to discover they share a hidden sister raised in secrecy. Both brothers have unknowingly fallen in love with her. When their mother reveals the truth, ancient prophecies and jealous passion collide in devastating ways. Schiller combines Greek tragic tradition with modern theater, setting his drama in Sicily where Christianity and paganism meet. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
