Summary "Don Álvaro, o, La fuerza del Sino" by duque de Angel de Saavedra Rivas is a drama written in the mid-19th century. This play unfolds the tumultuous story of Don Álvaro, a character shrouded in mystery and intrigue, as he strives for love and acceptance in a society that questions his lineage and intentions. The narrative weaves themes of honor, passion, and societal judgment through the lives of its central characters. At the start of the drama, the audience is introduced to Don Álvaro, who has recently returned to Spain from the West Indies and seeks the hand of Doña Leonor, the daughter of the Marques de Calatrava. The scene is set in Sevilla, where various townspeople discuss Don Álvaro's reputation, the obstacles he faces in his pursuit of love, and the jealousy of the Marques, who has other plans for his daughter. Tension builds as it becomes evident that their love is threatened by misunderstanding and the expectations imposed by society, hinting at the forthcoming tragedy that will unfold throughout the play.
