Malatesta (play)
''Malatesta'' is a play by the French writer Henry de Montherlant, written in 1943–1944 and first published in 1946. It was first performed on stage in 1950. Plot Sigismondo Malatesta, the 15th-century ruler of Rimini, is offered the cities Spoleto and Foligno if he gives up his own city to the troops of Pope Paul II. Malatesta is furious and goes to Rome to assassinate the Pope, but ends up accepting an honorary office in the Vatican. After falling ill, Malatesta is brought back to Rimini by his wife Isotta. Back in his home he is poisoned by the learned Porcellio and dies. Themes The play portrays the vulnerability of a man who is at once unsuspecting and immoral.
