Moralność Pani Dulskiej by Gabriela Zapolska

Tragifarsa kołtuńska

Set in early 20th-century Poland, this play delves into the hypocrisy and moral duplicity of the bourgeoisie through the character of Mrs. Dulska, a domineering matriarch who maintains a facade of respectability while engaging in unethical behavior behind closed doors. Her household becomes a microcosm of societal issues, as she manipulates her family and tenants to preserve her public image, revealing the stark contrast between outward appearances and inner realities. The narrative critiques the superficial morality of the time, exposing the underlying selfishness and deceit that often accompany social pretensions.
