Book Overview
"Tieranny Van Eigenbaat In Het Eiland Van Vryekeur" (Tyranny of Self-Interest on the Island of Free Choice) is a 17th-century Dutch play by Andries Pels, a prominent figure in the literary and theatrical world of the Dutch Golden Age. This allegorical drama explores themes of freedom, self-interest, and tyranny within a fictional island setting. As a 'zinnespel' or 'allegorical play, ' it offers a complex and thought-provoking commentary on the political and social issues of its time.
Pels, known for his classicist approach to drama, crafts a narrative rich in symbolism and moral lessons. This play provides valuable insight into the intellectual climate of the Dutch Republic and the debates surrounding governance and individual liberty. It remains a significant work for scholars and readers interested in Dutch literature, theater history, and the history of political thought.
