theatreJean Giraudoux20th centurymadnessecologydescription
The play entitled The Madwoman of Chaillot (1945) by Jean Giraudoux (1882– 1944) is a poetic expression, through a true/false game, of the author’s anxiety concerning the politics of the excessive exploitation of the Earth’s natural resources and its consequences. The idea of getting rich no matter what has been ridiculed with mastery, due to the characteristics of the style of the author of Electra, such as parody, irony, and agility. The main character is ambivalent, which allows interpretative variations and makes the matter of the play complicated and equivocal, which has been proved by the Polish staging of the play in 1947.
