Marija Stjuart

Marija Stjuart

Stefan Zweig

In the biographical essay book Maria Stuart, Stefan Zweig provides a dramatic account of the life of Queen of Scots Maria I. Stuart, whose life was marked by political intrigues, love tragedies and a personal struggle between passion and duty.

Zweig describes Mary as a complex personality – an intelligent, courageous and emotional woman who strives to preserve power and personal dignity in a world of male domination.

The book depicts key moments in Mary’s life: the early loss of her husband, her return to Scotland, unhappy marriages, political conflicts with Protestants, personal betrayals and the final conflict with her cousin, Queen Elizabeth I of England. Mary’s struggle ends with her captivity and execution, which Zweig describes with deep emotional power.

Through rich narration and psychological analysis, Zweig manages to evoke Mary’s tragic fate, while at the same time critically reflecting on politics, power and human weakness. The work is more than a biography – it is also a meditation on the conflict of personal destiny and historical circumstances.
