Features: The School for Scandal tells the story of a love between a commoner daughter and a nobleman, and how it is destroyed by conspiracy. It reflects the ideas of progressive young people who demand to break the feudal class system and fight for equality. On the other hand, Schiller, in this work, does his utmost to expose the corruption and crimes of the German feudal aristocracy. Many of the stories in the play are directly drawn from the social reality of Germany at the time. For example, the sale of young men is a real crime committed by Duke Eugene of Württemberg.
