Bánk bán is a historical tragedy in five acts by JÃ3zsef Katona, considered one of the most important works in Hungarian literature. Written in the early 19th century, the play explores themes of national identity, corruption, and betrayal within the Hungarian court during the reign of King Andrew II. The story centers on Bánk bán, a nobleman who is left in charge of the kingdom while the king is away. He faces a moral crisis when he uncovers a conspiracy against the throne and discovers the queen's infidelity.
Katona's work is noted for its powerful language, complex characters, and dramatic intensity. It has been adapted into operas and films, remaining a cornerstone of Hungarian theatrical tradition and a powerful reflection on Hungarian history and national consciousness.
