About this eBook

Author Wecksell, J. J. (Josef Julius), 1838-1907
Title Daniel Hjort: Sorgespel i fem akter med fyra tablåer
Credits Produced by Tapio Riikonen
Summary "Sorgespel i fem akter med fyra tablåer" by J. J. Wecksell is a dramatic piece set in the late 19th century, focusing on themes of loyalty and betrayal amidst political turmoil. The narrative unfolds primarily through the characters of noblemen and their relationships, notably highlighting figures like Daniel Hjort, a natural child caught in the conflict, and references to figures of authority such as the Duke and various military officers, depicting the struggle for power in Finland during a turbulent period of Swedish history. At the start of the drama, we are introduced to a tense atmosphere at Åbo Castle, where characters discuss political maneuvering and preparation for what seems to be an impending conflict. Daniel Hjort emerges as a poignant figure, grappling with his identity and the implications of his lineage as he navigates the fraught dynamics between loyalty to friends and family and the larger political stakes. The act presents several intersecting plots, such as potential alliances and romantic tensions, particularly with Sigrid, reflecting not only personal endeavors but also the broader themes of honor and vengeance in the context of a nation divided. The opening sets the stage for an exploration of these themes, hinting at the complexities and emotional weight that will undoubtedly unfold in the ensuing acts.
