Das Stück, das 1920 in Berlin uraufgeführt wurde und aus zehn miteinander verbundenen Dialogszenen besteht, enthüllt die Doppelmoral und die verborgenen Sehnsüchte der Gesellschaft um 1900. Es löste aufgrund seines erotischen Inhalts einen der größten Theaterskandale des frühen 20. Jahrhunderts aus. Wegen seiner offenen Darstellung von Sexualität war das Werk lange Zeit verboten und sorgte für große Kontroversen.

A Room of One's Own, among Virginia Woolf's best-known works, is an extended essay, based on two lectures that she delivered in October 1928 at Newnham College and Girton College, women's constituent colleges at the University of Cambridge. First published in September 1929 as a book, this seminal feminist text makes a case for a literal and figurative space for women writers within a literary tradition dominated by men.

Mit Götz von Berlichingen (1773) schuf Johann Wolfgang von Goethe eines der wichtigsten Werke des Sturm und Drang. Die Figur des rebellischen Ritters mit der eisernen Hand verkörpert den Widerstand gegen Willkür, Machtmissbrauch und gesellschaftliche Zwänge. Das Drama basiert auf der historischen Figur Götz von Berlichingen (1480–1562) und ist ein leidenschaftliches Plädoyer für persönliche Freiheit und aufrechtes Handeln – voller Pathos, Konflikte und politischer Spannung.

Das Stück, das 1920 in Berlin uraufgeführt wurde und aus zehn miteinander verbundenen Dialogszenen besteht, enthüllt die Doppelmoral und die verborgenen Sehnsüchte der Gesellschaft um 1900. Es löste aufgrund seines erotischen Inhalts einen der größten Theaterskandale des frühen 20. Jahrhunderts aus. Wegen seiner offenen Darstellung von Sexualität war das Werk lange Zeit verboten und sorgte für große Kontroversen.

A Room of One's Own, among Virginia Woolf's best-known works, is an extended essay, based on two lectures that she delivered in October 1928 at Newnham College and Girton College, women's constituent colleges at the University of Cambridge. First published in September 1929 as a book, this seminal feminist text makes a case for a literal and figurative space for women writers within a literary tradition dominated by men.

Mit Götz von Berlichingen (1773) schuf Johann Wolfgang von Goethe eines der wichtigsten Werke des Sturm und Drang. Die Figur des rebellischen Ritters mit der eisernen Hand verkörpert den Widerstand gegen Willkür, Machtmissbrauch und gesellschaftliche Zwänge. Das Drama basiert auf der historischen Figur Götz von Berlichingen (1480–1562) und ist ein leidenschaftliches Plädoyer für persönliche Freiheit und aufrechtes Handeln – voller Pathos, Konflikte und politischer Spannung.

Drei Schwestern ist eines der bekanntesten Dramen von Anton Tschechow und ein tiefgründiges Porträt einer russischen Adelsfamilie, die in einer Kleinstadt festsitzt und vom Leben in Moskau träumt. Zwischen Hoffnung und Resignation gefangen, sehnen sich die Schwestern nach Veränderung, doch ihre Träume bleiben unerfüllt. Mit subtilem Humor und psychologischer Tiefe zeigt Tschechow die Melancholie einer untergehenden Gesellschaft und die universellen Themen des menschlichen Daseins.

In "Antigone", eine der wohl bekanntesten Tragödien des griechischen Dramatikers Sophokles, widersetzt sich die junge Frau dem Befehl des Königs: Sie will ihren Bruder Polyneikes ehrenvoll bestatten – obwohl dieser als Staatsfeind gilt. Ihr Mut, das menschliche Gewissen über das staatliche Gesetz zu stellen, führt zu einer dramatischen Kettenreaktion. Der Konflikt zwischen Pflicht, Macht, Familie und göttlichem Recht macht Antigone bis heute zu einem der meistgespielten Dramen der Weltliteratur.

“El Arco de Segismundo” recorre los principales monólogos del protagonista de La vida es sueño de Calderón de la Barca, revelando de manera clara y emocionante el arco completo de su transformación. El libro traza un viaje entre dos polos: desde aquel joven salvaje encadenado al inicio de la obra hasta el príncipe que finalmente logra emerger en él, en su ejercicio del libre albedrío. Los monólogos se intercalan con el texto de un NARRADOR -también escrito por Luis Carlos de La Lombana-, que ofrece un contexto claro y conciso de lo que ocurre en “La Vida es Sueño” entre cada uno de ellos.

"Die Perser" (472 v. Chr.) ist die älteste erhaltene Tragödie der Literaturgeschichte. Das Werk schildert aus der Perspektive der persischen Königsfamilie den katastrophalen Untergang von Xerxes' Flotte bei Salamis. In eindringlichen Chor- und Monologszenen schildern Atossa, der verstorbene König Dareios und Xerxes selbst das Trauma einer untergehenden Großmacht. Aischylos, selbst Veteran von Marathon und Salamis, mahnt vor Hybris und lädt zur Empathie mit den Besiegten ein. Ein dramatisches, historisch verwurzeltes Meisterwerk – reich an Sprache, Emotion & zeitlosem moralischem Gewicht.

Dies ist eine vollständige Lesung der antiken Komödie – wörtlich, mit Witz und satirischer Schärfe vorgetragen. Aristophanes schöpft aus urkomischer Fantasie, indem er zwei Männer zeigt, die mit Vögeln eine eigene Stadt bauen – und so der menschlichen Macht ihre absurden Grenzen aufzeigt. "Die Vögel" entwirft eine utopische Vogelstadt als subversives Gegenmodell zu menschlicher Gier, Politik und Machtwahn – ein lebhaftes, zeitloses Spiel mit Freiheit und Gesellschaftskritik.

Mit "Medea" schuf Euripides eines der eindrucksvollsten Dramen der griechischen Antike. Im Mittelpunkt steht Medea, die von ihrem Mann Jason für eine andere verlassen wird – und deren Reaktion in eine der radikalsten Taten der Tragödienliteratur mündet. Die Tragödie thematisiert Liebe, Rache, Machtlosigkeit und die Stellung der Frau – und zeigt, wie Schmerz, Stolz und Ausgrenzung einen Menschen zu tragischen Entscheidungen bewegen können. Ein weltberühmter Stoff – Medeas Geschichte wird bis heute auf den Bühnen der Welt gespielt und diskutiert.

Mit "Lysistrate" schuf Aristophanes eine der bekanntesten Komödien des antiken Griechenlands. Das Stück wurde 411 v. Chr. uraufgeführt – mitten im Peloponnesischen Krieg – und ist bis heute ein Paradebeispiel für politische Satire, weiblichen Protest und kluge Komik. In der Handlung verbünden sich die Frauen Athens und Spartas, um ihre Männer zum Frieden zu zwingen – indem sie den Geschlechtsverkehr verweigern. Was folgt, ist eine bissige, humorvolle und überraschend moderne Auseinandersetzung mit Krieg, Macht, Geschlechterrollen und gesellschaftlichem Wandel.
