Summary | "Œuvres complètes de Alfred de Musset — Tome 4" by Alfred de Musset is a collection of plays written in the late 19th century. The volume features several works, including "Lorenzaccio," which explores themes of political intrigue and moral ambiguity, centered on the character Lorenzo de Médicis, a conflicted figure navigating the dangerous waters of corruption and power in Florence. The opening of "Lorenzaccio" sets the stage in a moonlit garden where Duke Alessandro de Médicis and his cousin Lorenzo converse while waiting for a young woman to arrive. Their dialogue reveals Lorenzo's peculiar character—a mix of charm and cowardice—while showcasing the duke's shallow desires. As the scenes unfold, we see a glimpse of the social dynamics in Florence, notably the tensions between nobility and commoners, as well as the looming specter of political instability. Various characters are introduced, hinting at the conflicts and dramas that will develop as the narrative progresses, establishing a rich backdrop of intrigue, desire, and the quest for freedom amidst oppression.
