Sémiramis is a five-act tragedy in verse by Voltaire, first performed in 1748. The play draws inspiration from ancient history and mythology, focusing on the legendary queen of Assyria, Sémiramis. Voltaire masterfully crafts a tale of ambition, intrigue, and vengeance, exploring the complexities of power and the consequences of unchecked desires. Set against the backdrop of ancient Babylon, the drama unfolds with compelling characters, dramatic tension, and poetic language characteristic of Voltaire’s style.
