Edmond Rostand

    1 aprile 1868 – 2 dicembre 1918

    Edmond Rostand fu un poeta e drammaturgo francese associato al neoromanticismo. Le sue opere romantiche, che offrirono un'alternativa al naturalismo popolare della sua epoca, sono caratterizzate da un linguaggio lirico e personaggi appassionati. Rostand intrecciò magistralmente umorismo e tragedia, creando storie senza tempo sull'amore e sull'onore.

      This is Edmond Rostand's immortal play in which chivalry and wit, bravery and love are forever captured in the timeless spirit of romance. Set in Louis XIII’s reign, it is the moving and exciting drama of one of the finest swordsmen in France, gallant soldier, brilliant wit, tragic poet-lover with the face of a clown. Rostand’s extraordinary lyric powers gave birth to a universal hero—Cyrano De Bergerac—and ensured his own reputation as author of one of the best-loved plays in the literature of the stage. This translation, by the American poet Brian Hooker, is nearly as famous as the original play itself, and is generally considered to be one of the finest English verse translations ever written.

They secretly meet at the wall dividing their gardens, yearning for peace between their families. Their romance mirrors that of Romeo and Juliet, yet takes a hopeful turn when an unexpected resolution to the hostilities arises just before the first act concludes, promising a happy ending to their love story.

Eine turbulente Geschichte voller abenteuerlicher Verwicklungen nimmt ihren Lauf ...
