Description
The drama Justice was written by John Galsworthy, a well-known English playwright and writer. The play addresses a variety of issues about justice, law, and morality. Justice is a drama about crime and punishment that criticizes the legal system across the world, as the affluent always leave the poor to languish in jail. Galsworthy wants his readers to understand the circumstances that lead the poor man in his story to decide to commit this illegal act, highlighting the phenomenon of forgery where the criminal is apprehended and justice triumphs. As a result, Galsworthy wants the audience to read and view the play through human eyes rather than through the eyes of earthly law and order. John Galsworthy (1867-1933) was an English novelist and playwright. He is viewed as one of the first writers of the Edwardian era; challenging in his works some of the ideals of society depicted in the preceding literature of Victorian England. He was awarded the Nobel Prize in literature in 1932 “for his distinguished art of narration which takes its highest form in The Forsyte Saga.”
