Book Description
Excerpt from Polyeucte Pierre corneille was thirty-four years old when he composed his tragedy of Polyeucte. We are told that the beam: esprit: of the H6tel de Rambouillet did not approve of it, and that the poet would have abandoned the intention of having his work performed but for an actor who overcame his scruples, and persuaded him to test the good sense of the public. The success was complete. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
