Set in Jerusalem during the Third Crusade, this 1779 play constitutes an appeal for religious tolerance and cooperation among Christians, Jews, and Muslims. Banned by the church during the author's lifetime, the highly influential drama's timeless considerations include the nature of God, anti-Semitism, wealth and poverty, and the conflict between love and duty.
