The Fundamental Choice in Roman Brandstaetter’s The Day Of Wrath

Abstract

Different attitudes towards God and the consequences of being faithful to the path chosen prompt general and more universal reflections on the essence of people’s fundamental decisions. The Day of Wrath by Roman Brandstaetter, one of the greatest Polish post-war playwrights, is among his most interesting plays. While telling the life stories of three very different people, a German, a Pole and a Jew, Brandstaetter intertwines their fates during the war.
