Table of Contents
Jean Racine (1639-99) was a poet, playwright and master of classical French tragedy. He took his subjects from antiquity or mythology and became very popular with his plays dealing with blind, passionate love. 'Mithridate' (1673) tells the tragic story of the ageing king Mithridates of Pontus who, consumed by passion for Monime, the captive princess, has rivals in the persons of his sons Xiphares and Pharnace. This useful student edition contains the complete French text of the play along with a substantial Introduction and Commentary also in French.
