This powerful work was read by Voltaire to Frederick of Prussia in 1740 to the king's great delight. The play was withdrawn after the fourth representation under pressure of Church authorities who professed to see in it a bloody satire against the Christian religion. Almost three hundred years later critics are still unclear if this play is a rebuke of Islam or of Christianity or perhaps both.
