Jeppe sur la Monto; aŭ la Transformita Kamparano by Ludvig Holberg

"Jeppe sur la Monto; aŭ la Transformita Kamparano" by Ludvig Holberg is a Danish comedy written in 1722. A drunken peasant named Jeppe, tormented by his wife and trapped in misery, becomes the target of an elaborate prank. When a baron discovers him unconscious, he transports Jeppe to his castle and convinces him he's a nobleman. What follows is a darkly comic exploration of identity, power, and social hierarchy as Jeppe experiences life beyond his station—only to face increasingly absurd consequences when reality intrudes.
