The Goddess of Reason: A Drama in Five Acts

A five-act historical drama set in Brittany and Nantes during the French Revolution (1791–1794) dramatizes clashes among noble households, revolutionary deputies, clergy, soldiers, and civilians caught in political turmoil. Action moves from a threatened château and a convent garden to public squares, a church used as a prison, a judgment hall, and the Loire, depicting communal violence, public spectacles such as a secular fête, arrests, trials, and executions. The play examines shifting loyalties, moral dilemmas, and the human cost of ideological fervor amid social upheaval.
