About this title

Synopsis

Gillet de La Tessonerie’s tragi-comedy is an unusual example in French seventeenth-century theatre of a ‘play within a play’. In fact, there are five plays contained within the story of a young man’s visit to a magician to find a cure for the passions which torment him: vainglory, ambition, sex, jealousy, hate. The play has not been reprinted since 1645 and is an important example of diversity in early French classical theatre.

This is a volume in the Textes litt�raires/Exeter French Texts. The text, introduction and essential notes are all in French.

About the Author

P. E. Chaplin teaches at the University of Keele. She is editor of L’Art de R�gner by Gillet de La Tessonerie (Exeter, 1993).
