By Aileen Cleveland Higgins

Book Overview

Thekla: A Drama is a play written by Aileen Cleveland Higgins and published in 1907. The play revolves around the character of Thekla, a young woman who is torn between her duty to her family and her desire for freedom and independence. Thekla is engaged to a man named Karl, but she is not in love with him. Instead, she is drawn to a man named Max, who represents everything she longs for in life. As Thekla struggles to navigate her conflicting emotions and desires, she must also contend with the expectations of her family and the society in which she lives. The play is a powerful exploration of love, duty, and the struggle for self-determination, and it remains a classic of early 20th-century drama.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
