Book excerpt: Excerpt from Corneile and the Spanish Drama Corneille's second play, Clitandre, a tragi comedy, produced in 1632, throws not a little light upon his early development. He here first shows a knowledge of the dramatic unities here too, as later in the Cid, it is to a purely romantic subject that he attempts, at least in one respect, to apply the classical canons. Clitandre is a veritable romance, strongly resembling the chivalrous romances still so much in vogue at the time. Noble knights and ladies, the joys and woes of their loves, their jealousies and bravery, are all brought before our eyes. The following is a brief ah stract of the play.
