Maggiori informazioni sul libro

Described by Pierre Corneille as a "strange monster," this five-act play, originally labeled a comedy, showcases a blend of caprice and extravagance. Written in 1635 and staged the following year, it disappeared from the theater for three centuries until its revival in 1937 by Louis Jouvet and the Comédie Française. Since then, it has gained recognition as Corneille's baroque masterpiece, highlighting its unique place in theatrical history.
