Book Synopsis Britannicus ; Phaedra ; Athaliah by : Jean Racine
Book excerpt: Jean Racine remains to this day the greatest of French poetic dramatists. This volume brings together three of his most important plays in an entirely new translation. C.H. Sisson captures the clarity, passion, and rhythm of Racine's language as he portrays characters wrestling with ambition, treachery, religion, and love.
