Пьер Корнель. Сид. Жан Расин. Федра
В настоящем сборнике представлены два величайших произведения французского театра эпохи классицизма: "Сид" Пьера Корнеля и "Федра" Жана Расина.
Корнель - создатель французской классической трагедии, его творчество знаменовало рождение национального театра и вместе с тем сыграло решающую роль в формировании классицизма. Творчество Жана Расина представило новый этап театра классицизма. Отмечая идеализаторскую тенденцию творчества драматурга, критики той эпохи говорили, что "Корнель рисует людей такими, какими они должны были бы быть, а Расин - такими, каковы они в действительности".
Обе пьесы имели огромный успех у современников. Они неоднократно ставились на сцене в ХХ веке; хотя поэт сетовал, что не увидит "многоликой "Федры" в старинном многоярусном театре", была "Федра" Таирова и Алисы Коонен, а современные режиссеры вновь и вновь вводят в театральную афишу высокие образцы классической трагедии.

About the author
Jean Racine
2,048 books363 followersClassical Greek and Roman themes base noted tragedies, such as
Britannicus
(1669) and
Phèdre
(1677), of French playwright Jean Baptiste Racine.
Adherents of movement of Cornelis Jansen included Jean Baptiste Racine.
This dramatist ranks alongside Molière (Jean Baptiste Poquelin) and Pierre Corneille of the "big three" of 17th century and of the most important literary figures in the western tradition. Psychological insight, the prevailing passion of characters, and the nakedness of both plot and stage mark dramaturgy of Racine. Although primarily a tragedian, Racine wrote one comedy.
Orphaned by the age of four years when his mother died in 1641 and his father died in 1643, he came into the care of his grandparents. At the death of his grandfather in 1649, his grandmother, Marie des Moulins, went to live in the convent of Port-Royal and took her grandson Jean-Baptiste. He received a classical education at the Petites écoles de Port-Royal, a religious institution that greatly influenced other contemporary figures, including Blaise Pascal.
The French bishops and the pope condemned Jansenism, a heretical theology, but its followers ran Port-Royal. Interactions of Racine with the Jansenists in his years at this academy great influenced the rest of his life. At Port-Royal, he excelled in his studies of the classics, and the themes of Greek and Roman mythology played large roles in his works.
Jean Racine died from cancer of the liver. He requested burial in Port-Royal, but after Louis XIV razed this site in 1710, people moved his body to the church of Saint-Étienne-du-Mont in Paris.

С каждым прочтением от меня все дальше и дальше ускользает смысл и какая-то притягательность. Очень искусственный конфликт, такого не бывает в жизни, хотя я и понимаю, что для классицизма это не помеха.
