Géza Páskándi
For the Homeland and Freedom
(Homage à II. Rákóczi Ferenc)
historical play
Translated by::
The part of Hungarian society today that is sensitive to the national past is commemorating the 300th anniversary of the war of independence (1703–1711) led by II. Rákóczi Ferenc. By staging Páskándi Géza’s grand, expansive historical fresco, the Szigligeti company pays tribute to the memory of the struggle for national independence, placing at its centre the figure of the prince, whose character is not without contradictions.
