Jean Racine : A Critical Biography, Paperback / softback Book

Jean Racine : A Critical Biography Paperback / softback

Part of the Routledge Revivals series

Paperback / softback

Description

Racine the practising dramatist had been in some danger of being crowded out from the numerous books on his psychology and style. In this critical study of the man and his work, first published in 1951 and this slightly revised edition originally in 1973, Dr Brereton’s guiding principle has been to make the factual basis as accurate as it can be in the light of modern research.

The result is the portrait of a sensitive and attractive figure which is none the worse for being shorn of certain legends.
