Question

(A) Critically appreciate the First Act of the play, 'Arms and the Man'.​

Answer 1

Answer:

The play begins November of 1885 in a lady’s bedchamber in small-town Bulgaria at the end of the Serbo-Bulgarian War. The room is a confusing mixture of Bulgarian and Viennese decorations and furniture; the native pieces are rich and beautiful, but the occidental pieces are cheap and paltry. Between the door and the bed sits a chest of drawers covered with a pile of paperback novels, a box of chocolate creams and a photo of a handsome officer. A beautiful young lady, Raina Petkoff stands on the balcony admiring the “romantic beauty of the night” and knowing that “her own youth and beauty are part of it” (2).
