| 520 | _a"Le jugement dernier des rois" by Sylvain Maréchal is a one-act prophecy presented in prose, written during the late 18th century. This theatrical piece centers around the theme of kings and tyrants being brought to justice, reflecting the revolutionary sentiments of its time, particularly in relation to the upheaval during and after the French Revolution. It serves as a social commentary on the roles and responsibilities of rulers versus the rights of the people. The narrative unfolds in a volcanic island where all the kings of Europe are sent as punishment for their tyranny. A French elder, who has been exiled there for twenty years, encounters a group of sans-culottes who inform him of the downfall of monarchies across Europe. The sans-culottes bring the deposed kings to this island, where they must fend for themselves, devoid of their previous privileges and grandeur. The play culminates in a chaotic and violent confrontation among the kings as they struggle for survival, reflecting their folly and impotence when stripped of power. Maréchal's work is both satirical and critical, emphasizing themes of liberty, equality, and the harsh realities faced by those once deemed powerful.
