Set against the backdrop of ancient Chinese theatrical tradition, this work highlights the significance of "The Orphan," a tragedy that showcases the rich history of dramatic poetry in China, predating Greek theater. The narrative emphasizes how this art form served not only as entertainment but also as a moral compass, teaching virtue through performance. Voltaire reflects on the uniqueness of Chinese drama, contrasting it with the lack of similar traditions in Persia and India, underscoring its cultural importance and historical isolation.
