According to the Hebrew Bible, Saul (/sɔːl/; Hebrew: שָׁאוּל, Šāʼûl ; "asked for, prayed for"; Latin: Saul; Arabic: طالوت, Ṭālūt or Arabic: شاؤل, Shā'ūl) was the first king of a united Kingdom of Israel and Judah. His reign, traditionally placed in the late 11th century BCE, would have marked a switch from a tribal society to statehood.
The oldest accounts of Saul's life and reign are found in the Hebrew Bible. He was reluctantly anointed by the prophet Samuel in response to a popular movement to establish a monarchy, and reigned from Gibeah. After initial successes he lost favor with Samuel and God because of his disobedience to God. His son-in-law, David, was chosen by God to be a king. He fell on his sword (committed suicide) to avoid capture at the battle against the Philistines at Mount Gilboa. He was succeeded by his son, Ish-bosheth, whose brief reign was successfully contested by David. A similar yet different account of Saul's life is given in the Qur'an. Neither the length of Saul's reign, nor the extent of his territory are given in the Biblical account; the former is traditionally fixed at twenty or twenty-two years, but there is no reliable evidence for these numbers.

Plot: Erica is unmarried only temporarily in that her successful, wealthy husband of seventeen years has just left her for a girl he met while buying a shirt in Bloomingdale's. The film shows Erica coming to terms with the break-up while revising her opinions of herself, redefining that self in its own right rather than as an extension of somebody else's personality, and finally going out with another man. Erica refuses to drop everything for Saul, an abstract expressionist painter, simply out of love for him because he expects her to. It is not so much loneliness that is her problem, and the problems that men, flitting around this newly "available" woman like moths round a flame, bring to her sense of independence.

L'opera fu scritta nel 1782 in endecasillabi sciolti; è composta da 5 atti e dedicata all'amico Tommaso Valperga di Caluso, docente di greco e di lingue orientali. La vicenda richiama quella tratta nella Bibbia riguardante la battaglia fra Saul, primo re di Israele, e i Filistei, ma se nel Libro Sacro la figura di Saul è rappresentata come l'imprevedibile e immotivato esito di un'inspiegabile follia, nella tragedia alfieriana diventa l'agire di una figura psicologicamente complessa e tormentata, a tre dimensioni. Nella narrazione l'Alfieri si attiene all'unità di tempo, spazio e azione tipicamente aristotelici; secondo questi canoni, dunque, nel Saul gli eventi...

In a murder trial, the defendant says he suffered temporary insanity after the victim raped his wife. What is the truth, and will he win his case?
Beg if you please, begging for hell
a negative plea and no one to help
What did you say? They raped you today
How do you feel? I hate you that way
Why?
Running the bush, snake in the grass
Promising this, promising that
Taking a tisket, taking a tasket
Curse of the tomb, curse of the tomb
Why?
For so long I’m consumed
by the evil below, by the evil below
All of you read my mind
What’s a man gonna do, what’s a man gonna do?
