The Burning (play) : ウィキペディア英語版 | The Burning (play)
''The Burning'' is a 1971 historical play, written by Stewart Conn. Set during the life of James VI of Scotland, the play addresses the power struggle between the King and his cousin, the Earl of Bothwell. It exemplifies the brutality meted out to those caught in the midst of any struggle for religious or political power, and also deals with themes of witchcraft and superstition within the context of a battle between authority and anarchy. Conn's play was partly inspired by, and written in answer to, Robert McLellan's four-act comedy, ''Jamie the Saxt'' (1936), which earlier depicted the same period and events, though with a less direct portrayal of the King's grave role in the persecution of witchcraft.
