The Saxons: A Drama of Christianity in the North

"The Saxons: A Drama of Christianity in the North" by Edwin Davies Schoonmaker is a historical drama that tells of the Saxon people and their leader Canzler as they confront a growing Christian influence that threatens their traditions. Oswald, a shepherd, and Selma, Canzler's daughter, both have major roles in the conflict to come. The drama is set up with two Saxons talking in a forest, where the drama starts to discuss a big metaphor to external forces, and how that will impact the future of its people, destiny and faith. The Saxons must decide if they want to keep their culture, even if that means conflict.
