Königin oder Dirne? : zur Darstellung der böhmischen Königin Kunigunde von Halitsch bei Franz Grillparzer und František Zavřel
Queen or whore? : on the depiction of the Queen of Bohemia Kunigunda of Galicia by Franz Grillparzer and František Zavřel
- Kunigunda of Galicia, the second wife of the Bohemian King Otokar II and later the second wife of the powerful nobleman Záviš of Falkenstein, suffers from a very poor reputation due to her depiction in medieval chronicles, especially the Styrian Rhymed Chronicle written by Ottokar aus der Gaal. Her image as a domineering and morally dubious figure is also echoed in Franz Grillparzer's play "König Ottokars Glück und Ende", which draws partly on the Styrian chronicle as source material. This study attempts to answer the question of what role Kunigunda plays in Grillparzer's drama, and whether she genuinely deserves to be known as a "whore" – a designation which was applied to her immediately after the play's premiere. Grillparzer's version of Kunigunda is also compared with her depiction in the tragedy "Král Přemysl Otakar Druhý" by František Zavřel.
