About the author
Jean Racine
1639–1699
A master of French classical tragedy, this seventeenth-century playwright became famous for intense, elegant dramas built on love, duty, ambition, and ruin. His plays, especially Andromaque, Bérénice, and Phèdre, have remained central to the French stage for centuries.
