  3. Andrea Chénier


It is possible the young poet Andrea Chénier by his honest dedication to freedom and humanity, to suspiciously in any political system: at a party on the eve of the revolution, in the castle of the Countess of Coigny, he shocked everyone by his praise to the ideals of freedom. Only Madeleine, the daughter of the Countess and the Gérard hopelessly in love they share his attitude. In the subsequent reign of terror of Robespierre, Chénier is suspected, however, counter-revolutionary activities. He must hide as well as the noble Madeleine. About Bersi, the former Chambermaid of the Countess, manages to make him contact with her. Both swear each other eternal love. But also Gérard, who is now Deputy of the Chamber can find Madeleine, whom he still loves. Just at the moment when decide Chénier and Madeleine to a joint flight, he meets the two. Driven by his love for Madeleine and by his earlier sympathies for Chénier, he but helps him to escape. However, Chénier is arrested shortly thereafter. As then Madeleine at Gérard emerges and offers this as a price for the salvation of Chéniers, even her body, Gérard, who recognizes that the revolution had betrayed the promoted ideals to be representations to save Chénier Robespierre decides. Unfortunately, this attempt fails. Madeleine, who would die together with her lover, reached at the normally open contact of the prison, to be exchanged against a prisoner sentenced to death. So go Chénier and Madeleine their final journey to the guillotine to be together - forever United in hoping in the new life...
