Book excerpt: Excerpt from Athaliah: A Tragedy, Drawn From Holy Scripture I have thought it right to explain these points here, so that those who do not readily recall the history of the Old Testament may not be inconvenienced while reading this tragedy. The subject of the play is Joash acknowledged and placed on the throne, and I ought, in accordance with the rules, to have entitled it Joash. But most people having heard it spoken of only under the name of Athaliah, I did not think it desirable to present it to them under another title; also, because Athaliah plays so important a part in it, and because it is her death which ends the play. Here now are some of the principal occurrences which preceded this great event. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book The Complete Plays of Jean Racine written by Jean Racine and published by Penn State Press. This book was released on 2015-10-27 with total page 156 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As Voltaire famously opined, Athaliah, Racine’s last play, is “perhaps the greatest masterwork of the human spirit.” Its formidable antagonists, Athaliah, queen of Judah, and Jehoiada, high priest of the temple of Jerusalem, are engaged in a deadly struggle for dominion: she, fiercely determined to maintain her throne and exterminate the detested race of David; he, no less fiercely determined to overthrow this heathen queen and enthrone the orphan Joash, the scion of the house of David, whom Athaliah believes she slew as an infant ten years earlier. This boy represents the sole hope for the survival of the royal race from which is to spring the Christ. But in this play, even God is more about hate and retribution than about love and mercy. This is the fourth volume of a projected translation into English of all twelve of Jean Racine’s plays—only the third time such a project has been undertaken. For this new translation, Geoffrey Alan Argent has rendered these plays in the verse form that Racine might well have used had he been English: namely, the “heroic” couplet. Argent has exploited the couplet’s compressed power and flexibility to produce a work of English literature, a verse drama as gripping in English as Racine’s is in French. Complementing the translation are the illuminating Discussion, intended as much to provoke discussion as to provide it, and the extensive Notes and Commentary, which offer their own fresh and thought-provoking insights.
