An adaptation of Friedrich Schiller's play. Set in 16th-century Germany [which] concerns the rivalry between the brothers Karl and Franz, both of whom operate outside conventional morality. A protest against official corruption, the play condemned a society in which men of high purpose could be driven to live outside the law when justice was denied them. Franz, the younger brother, turns their father against Karl, who then collects a band of outlaws and lives in the forest. Franz imprisons and mistreats their father, who dies when he learns that Karl is a brigand. Amalia, Karl's faithful beloved, knows that Karl will never break his vow of allegiance to his robber comrades. She convinces Karl to kill her because she cannot live without him. Karl does so and then surrenders to the authorities, having decided that terrorism and criminal behaviour are not acceptable solutions to human injustice.--Encyclopedia Britannica.
