Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the psychology of Jean Racine, a renowned 17th-century French playwright. By examining his early life, the author traces the roots of Racine's complex personality, revealing a hidden side to the man behind the literary genius. The author argues that Racine's true nature, masked by his public persona, was characterized by a sharp wit and a tendency towards irritability and mystery. The book further explores the surprising and decisive conversion Racine underwent in his later years, moving from a worldly existence to one of piety and devotion. This transformation, the author suggests, stemmed from a combination of factors, including the influence of Port Royal, a prominent Jansenist community, and personal events that led Racine to confront his mortality. Through a close analysis of Racine's letters and works, the author uncovers the inner workings of the playwright's mind, shedding light on the often contradictory nature of his character. The book offers a fresh perspective on Racine's life and work, emphasizing the profound psychological struggles that shaped both his personal journey and his enduring literary legacy. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9780243940400_0
