Download or read book Le Cid ; And, The Liar written by Pierre Corneille and published by Houghton Mifflin Harcourt. This book was released on 2009 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Richard Wilbur's translations of the great French dramas have been a boon to acting troupes, students of French literature and history, and theater lovers. He continues this wonderful work with two plays from Pierre Corneille: Le Cid is Corneille's most famous play, a tragedy set in Seville that illuminates the dangers of being bound by honor and the limits of romantic love; The Liar is a farce, set in France and dealing with love, misperceptions, and downright falsifications, which ends, of course, happily ever after. These two plays, together in one volume, work in perfect tandem to showcase the breadth of Corneille's abilities. Taking us back to the time he portrays as well as the time of his greatest success as a playwright, they remind us that the delights to be found on the French stage are truly ageless.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Includes the plays The Liar, The Illusion, Le Cid Pierre Corneille (1606–84), the great seventeenth-century neoclassical dramatist, wrote over thirty plays during his long and varied career. Triumphant in both comedy and tragedy, his plays remain at the core of the repertory. When the young Molière saw The Liar (Le Menteur), a delightful chronicle of a pathological liar’s adventures in love, he decided to become a playwright. The Illusion (L’Illusion Comique) is a fascinating and mysterious tragi-comedy, one of the first plays to explore consciously the relationship between theatre and the real world. Le Cid, Corneille’s best known play, was controversial in its day, and led to a resurgence in French drama. Ranjit Bolt’s version of The Liar finds a way of rendering rhyming couplets which ‘no one else from the history of translating for the theatre has ever done...with some style and without sacrificing the sense of gallantry that is so essential to the original text.’ (BBC Radio3’s Critics Forum.) Both The Liar and The Illusion recently enjoyed critical and box office success at the Old Vic, reaffirming Ranjit Bolt as one of the world’s foremost translators of drama.

Book excerpt: *** Le Cid est une pièce de théâtre tragi-comique en vers (alexandrins essentiellement) de Pierre Corneille dont la première représentation eut lieu le 7 janvier 1637 au théâtre du Marais. Résumé court : Chimène et Rodrigue doivent se marier, mais une querelle éclate entre leurs pères. Entre amour et piété filiale, Rodrigue décide de sauver l'honneur de sa famille et tue le père de sa promise. Rodrigue aime Chimène et Chimène aime Rodrigue. Leur mariage est sur le point d'être célébré lorsqu'une violente dispute éclate entre les pères des deux jeunes gens. Rodrigue est alors obligé d'affronter le père de Chimène en duel. Pour le jeune homme, le dilemme est cruel : doit-il venger l'honneur de son père ou sauver l'amour de celle qu'il aime ? Résumé général : Don Diègue et Don Gomès (comte de Gormas) projettent d’unir leurs enfants Rodrigue et Chimène, qui s'aiment. Mais le comte, jaloux de se voir préférer le vieux Don Diègue pour le poste de précepteur du prince, offense ce dernier en lui donnant une gifle (un « soufflet » dans le langage de l'époque). Don Diègue, trop vieux pour se venger par lui-même, remet sa vengeance entre les mains de son fils Rodrigue qui, déchiré entre son amour et son devoir, finit par écouter la voix du sang et tue le père de Chimène en duel. Chimène essaie de renier son amour et le cache au roi, à qui elle demande la tête de Rodrigue. Mais l’attaque du royaume par les Maures donne à Rodrigue l’occasion de prouver sa valeur et d’obtenir le pardon du roi. Plus que jamais amoureuse de Rodrigue devenu un héros national, Chimène reste sur sa position et obtient du roi un duel entre don Sanche, qui l'aime aussi, et Rodrigue. Elle promet d’épouser le vainqueur. Rodrigue victorieux reçoit du roi la main de Chimène : le mariage sera célébré l'année suivante.

Book excerpt: "[...] Leonora. Dear lady, however, amidst their good fortune you exhibit a grief which proceeds to excess. Does this love, which fills them both with gladness, produce in this noble heart [of yours] profound sadness? And does this great interest which you take in them render you unhappy, whilst they are happy? But I proceed too far, and become indiscreet. Infanta. My sadness redoubles in keeping the secret. Listen, listen at length, how I have struggled; listen what assaults my constancy [lit. virtue or valor] yet braves. Love is a tyrant which spares no one. This young cavalier, this lover which I give [her]-I love him.[...]".
