The Purgatory of St. Patrick is a play written by Pedro Calderon De La Barca, a Spanish playwright, in the 17th century. The play is based on the Catholic belief of purgatory, which is the intermediate state after death where souls are purified before entering heaven. The play follows the story of St. Patrick, the patron saint of Ireland, who is sent to purgatory by God to help a group of souls who are stuck in a state of limbo. These souls are unable to enter heaven or hell because of their sins and must be purified before they can move on. St. Patrick is accompanied by an angel who guides him through purgatory and introduces him to the souls he must help. The play is structured in a series of vignettes, each one depicting the story of a different soul and their struggle to overcome their sins. Throughout the play, Calderon explores themes of redemption, forgiveness, and the power of faith. The Purgatory of St. Patrick is considered one of Calderon's most significant works and is a classic example of Baroque theatre.LEOGAIRE.
