Kabale und Liebe (Intrigue and Love) is a classic example of a German bürgerliches Trauerspiel (bourgeois tragedy) by Friedrich Schiller. Published in 1784, the play critiques the political corruption and social inequality of 18th-century Germany through the tragic love story of Ferdinand von Walter, the son of a nobleman, and Luise Millerin, the daughter of a middle-class musician.
The play revolves around the machinations of Ferdinand's father, President von Walter, and his secretary, Wurm, who conspire to separate the lovers for political gain. Their schemes, involving deception and manipulation, ultimately lead to a devastating conclusion. Kabale und Liebe remains a powerful exploration of class conflict, moral decay, and the destructive force of unchecked power. This edition makes Schiller's enduring work accessible to modern readers, preserving the original German text.
