Mary Stuart
Friedrich Schiller
The author has chosen the six years that began when nineteen year old Mary set foot on her unruly land as queen and ended when the last ray of hope faded with the sunset she watched from the window of her prison.
It presents her as more than a puppet moving through a pedant's world.
Mary is portrayed as a star crossed girl seeking only to live and love and rule and worship as she pleases, bewildered by the intrigue which closed slowly in on her.
Elizabeth is pictured as an older, crafty and ambitious queen seeking to remove from her path a gracious, romantic and religious rival.
