Å'uvres De J. Racine

This collection presents several of Jean Racine's most celebrated plays, including "Mithridate," "Iphigénie," "Phèdre," "Esther," and "Athalie." Jean Racine (1639-1699) was a prominent French dramatist, renowned for his mastery of the neoclassical style and his profound exploration of human passions and tragic destinies. This edition, originally published in 1885, offers readers a glimpse into the rich literary heritage of 17th-century France. These plays, with their elegant verse and intense psychological portraits, continue to be studied and performed, solidifying Racine's place as one of the great figures in French literature. Accompanying the plays are works from Paul Mesnard, Jean Baptiste Moreau and Michel Richard De Lalande.
