Translated by L. A. J. (Leendert Alexander Johannes) Burgersdijk
A theatrical play written in the late 16th to early 17th century. The story unfolds in the kingdom of Navarre, where King Ferdinand and his companions—Biron, Longaville, and Dumaine—make a pact to dedicate themselves to scholarly pursuits for three years while eschewing the company of women. However, their commitment is soon challenged by the impending arrival of the French princess and her ladies, igniting themes of love, friendship, and the folly of human desires. At the start of the play, the King proposes an ambitious vow to shun women and focus on study, despite the humorous dissenting views of his courtiers. The opening scenes establish the characters' personalities and quick wit through clever banter and playful exchanges, revealing both their desires and their comedic shortcomings. As the narrative progresses, the tension builds around the inevitable arrival of the princess, setting the stage for romantic entanglements and conflicts that will challenge their oaths and prompt questions about the nature of love and ambition. This duality of intellect versus passion, alongside the unfolding misunderstandings, hints at the complex moral dynamics that will develop throughout the play.
