Judith: A Parting from the Body

Work:: Judith: A Parting from the Body (S01398818679)

Howard Barker's 1990 tragedy of female heroism and sexual desire where personal morality is sacrificed for political interests. It re-tells the Biblical story of Judith as a duel of power games and seduction that spirals out of control. On the eve of a destructive battle against the people of Israel, Judith sets out to seduce and kill their enemy's general. But a game of challenge and counter-challenge develops, in which she ultimately falls victim to her own sexual desires.
