POLY. Ah, how my heart quails at that single word! Thee, Felix, I o'ercame within my cell, Laughed at thy threats if death and torture fell; Yet hast thou still one arm to rouse my fears, The rest I scorn, but dread thy daughter's tears! One only talisman remains; great God, 'tis mine, Sufficient for my every need His strength divine! ... Read more

9. Pierre Corneille: Poetics and Political Drama under Louis XIII

Editorial Review

Book Description
The serious plays which Corneille wrote under Louis XIII reflect the disquiet of a poet whose local allegiances as a Norman magistrate were often uncomfortably at odds with government policies over which Cardinal Richelieu, his own literary patron, presided in Paris. David Clarke outlines the ideological and institutional crisis which characterised Corneille's times and explores the difficulties which Normandy experienced as a result of Richelieu's 'politique de gloire'. He goes on to examine the principles and originality of Corneille's poetics in a period when literary activity became increasingly subject to central government pressures and considers the significance of the serious plays written between 1630 and 1643, establishing a link between their reflection of contemporary ideological tensions and the 'collective mind' of their intended audience. ...

Editorial Review

Book Description
Professor Greenberg's new study explains the themes of authority, power and sexuality in Corneille's major plays, drawing on the work of Foucault, and Freudian and feminist critics. He begins by considering the question of myth and of a 'pre-historical' cultural memory in Médée, and proceeds to a detailed analysis of each of the four best-known tragedies: Le Cid, Horace, Cinna, and Polyeucte. A concluding chapter discusses two middle-period plays and Suréna, Corneille's last tragedy. Professor Greenberg argues that the formal symmetries of classical tragedy reflect a desire for control in the realm of both politics and sexuality. He also seeks to show how these principles of symmetry are challenged or undermined in various ways by the plays themselves. The result is an exacerbation of sexual and political desire which invests Cornelian tragedy with its peculiar power and involves us so deeply in its world. ... Read more

Editorial Review

Book Description
Corneille virtually founded seventeenth-century French tragedy: "Le Cid" and the three subsequent tragedies gave the genre its models and much of its theory. Many critics have created a synthetic picture of "Cornelian heroism" by seeing these four plays as representative of all Corneille's work, thus neglecting the sixteen others that followed. Now the tide has turned: scholars are trying to analyse the meaning of Cornielle's work with close reference to historical events and political ideas. ... Read more
