Summary "Á hora do crime" by Francisco Luís Coutinho de Miranda is a dramatic fantasy in one act, written in the early 1870s. This play revolves around the assassination of General Prim, exploring themes of political intrigue, morality, and the struggle for democracy in Spain. The narrative is set against a backdrop of historical events, reflecting the tumultuous political climate of the time and the author's personal inclination towards revolutionary ideas. The story unfolds in the home of D. Ramon in Madrid on the night of Prim's assassination. Characters engage in intense discussions about loyalty, political ideologies, and the implications of republicanism versus monarchy. Izabel, the daughter of D. Ramon and fiancée of Martinez, expresses her deep fears regarding the potential dangers faced by her loved ones amidst the political unrest. As the plot progresses, news of a violent attack on General Prim shocks the characters, revealing the complex layers of loyalty and treachery that define their relationships.
