Ο Άγιος Δημήτριος: Μυστήριον εις πράξεις 3 by Platon Rodokanakes
"Ο Άγιος Δημήτριος: Μυστήριον εις πράξεις 3" by Platon Rodokanakes is a dramatic work written in the early 20th century. Set in Thessaloniki during the early 4th century, the play explores themes of faith, political turmoil, and moral integrity through the experiences of the main character, Saint Demetrius, amidst the Roman Empire's conflicts against Christianity. The opening of the play introduces us to a vibrant scene in Thessaloniki, where a triumphant Caesar
Galerius enters amidst acclamations from the crowd following his military victories. As he engages in a dialogue with his attendants, concerns about the rising influence of Christians become apparent. The setting quickly shifts focus to Saint Demetrius, who boldly professes his faith in the presence of Galerius, creating tension as Galerius reacts with disbelief and anger. The scene sets the stage for a clash of ideologies between the steadfast belief of Demetrius and the political machinations of Galerius, hinting at the impending conflict and the profound challenges faced by those who adhere to their beliefs against overwhelming opposition.
