Synopsis

Britannicus is a historical tragedy written by Jean Racine and published in 1669. The play takes place in ancient Rome and explores the power struggles and political intrigue within the imperial court during the reign of Emperor Nero. The story revolves around the conflict between Nero and his stepbrother, Britannicus, who is the rightful heir to the throne. Nero fears Britannicus' popularity and plots to have him killed, leading to a tragic and dramatic conclusion. The play is known for its complex characters, poetic language, and exploration of themes such as power, ambition, and betrayal. Racine's Britannicus has been widely praised for its literary and dramatic qualities and is considered one of the greatest tragedies of French theatre.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.
