More Plays by Rivals of Corneille and Racine (Hardcover)

A follow-up to Lacy Lockert's classic The Chief Rivals of Corneille and Racine (Vanderbilt University Press 1956), More Plays by Rivals of Corneille and Racine consists of more French tragedies of the period--eleven plays from the great age of French drama in the seventeenth century, one play from the prolific pen of Alexandre Hardy, who preceded the great age, and one from the eighteenth century, the aftermath of that age. The volume contains plays Lockert typified as "excellent," such as Tiridate and Mariamne, Geta, and Ariane, "smash hits" of the time like Timocrate and Astrate, and several other plays Lockert called "minor," but that he felt would be of interest to scholars.
