Summary/Abstract |
A drama about the cult of Dionysus, the vine god, which involved orgiastic and frenzied nature rites.
The king of Thebes, Pentheus, imprisons Dionysus when the latter, in disguise, attempts to propagate his cult among the women of Thebes. This thwarting of a God's will leads to catastrophe. The play is a probing into man's psychological makeup and understanding of himself.

Summary/Abstract |
A legendary poet of ancient Persia, Hafiz is regarded as iconic and oracular by seekers of idyllic dreams and wishes. None other than Goethe has remarked that Hafiz had no peer.
This collection is derived from a collection of poems called 'Divan', a classic of Sufism.
True to the traditions of Sufi philosophy and Persian poetry, each poem can be interpreted in two ways, sensual and mystic.

Summary/Abstract |
Omar Khayyam was not known as a poet originally, although his name was credited to a body of quatrains. Not until Edward Fitzgerald published a free adaptation of his poetry, did the Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam become synonymous with the most beautifully simple expression of spiritual freedom and earthiness.

Summary/Abstract |
Luigi Pirandello wrote symbolic dramas and satires with radical innovations and departures from conventional theatrical techniques, thereby sparking controversies.
This intellectual comedy is "a drama within a drama", wherein six characters gatecrash a rehearsal, demanding 'lines' for their unfinished stories.
Embodies Pirandello's innovations of theatre by using a stage without sets.
A masterly feat of drama exploring the many facets of reality.
