Hardcover with dust jacket. Condition: Sehr gut. 605 p. Schutzumschlag nur leicht angeschmutzt, innen sauber und ohne Anstreichungen. / Dust jacket only slightly soiled, otherwise clean and without markings. - Here are blank verse translations of ten of the best tragedies by French dramatists contemporary with Corneille and Racine, and two by their most noted successors. No great dramatist can be properly understood and appreciated without some knowledge of the lesser playwrights surrounding him. That fact has long been realized as regards Shakespeare; but the lesser figures of the great age of French dramamen comparable to such Elizabethans as Middleton and Fletcher and Massingerhave been generally neglected. This book makes a selection of their best work available to English readers. French students who do not have access to the frequently rare French texts of these plays will find it valuable. No play by any of these dramatists, except Voltaire, has ever before been translated into English. The faithfulness and literary quality of Dr. Lockerts translations are avouched by his two previous volumes in this field, The Chief Plays of Corneille and The Best Plays of Racine. / CONTENTS Préface Sophonisbe (Jean de Mairet) La Mariane (Tristan lHermite) Saül (Pierre Du Ryer) Scevole (Pierre Du Ryer) Venceslas (Jean Rotrou ) Cosroes (Jean Rotrou) Laodice (Thomas Corneille) Le Comte DEssex (Thomas Corneille) Andronic (Jean-Galbert Campistron) Manlius Capitolinus (Antoine de La Fosse) Rhadamiste et Zenobie (Prosper Jolyot Crébillon) Zaïre (Voltaire).
