Summary "Electra: Drama em cinco actos" by Benito Pérez Galdós is a dramatic work written in the late 19th century. This play revolves around the character Electra, a young girl who is characterized by her spirited and mischievous nature, recently brought from a French boarding school to her wealthy relatives' home. The narrative explores themes of familial relationships, societal expectations, and the struggles of youth against adult conventions. The opening of the drama sets the stage in the opulent residence of the Garcia Yuste family. It introduces various characters discussing Electra, revealing her vivacious personality through dialogue filled with humor and affection. In their conversations, we learn about her arrival from school and hints at a complicated familial legacy, as her mother was once a notorious figure. The discussions among the characters depict their curiosity about Electra's character and foreshadow potential conflicts related to her upbringing, purity, and the roles imposed upon her by society. This initial act effectively establishes the tone and intrigues that will unfold throughout the play. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
