500 Quotations from the Great French Writers of the 17th Century

It’s no secret that writers often used their books, poems, and plays to impart observations, thoughts, and reflections. This was also the case for the literature of the 17th century which followed France’s pioneering status in politics and culture. ‘500 Quotations from the Great French Writers of the 17th Century’ offers a fascinating snapshot of that changing society, seen through the eyes of some of the best writers of the era. A superb book for dipping in and out of, this makes a great gift for anyone with an interest in French literature. - One of the most popular French poets of the 17th century, Jean de la Fontaine (1621 – 1695) was a pioneer of the fabulist form of literature. Imbuing animals with human characteristics, he paved the way for other fabulists to follow. Recognised as one of the three most important playwrights of the era, Pierre Corneille (1606 – 1684) is best remembered for his tragedies. He wrote 37 plays, including ‘El Cid.’ The next of the three French greats, Jean Racine (1639 – 1699) was also a tragedian known for his use of brutal yet eloquent speech. Completing the trio is Moliere (1622 – 1673). While his peers wrote tragedies, Moliere focused on comedies and his plays have been translated into almost every language on the planet. Jean de La Bruyère (1645 – 1696) was a philosopher and satirist whose works satirised many of his contemporaries.

Jean Racine es un dramaturgo y poeta francés, considerado uno de los mayores escritores de tragedias del período clásico en Francia. El éxito de Andrómaca en 1667 abrió una década de gran creación donde encontramos junto a una sola comedia (Les Plaideurs en 1668) seis grandes tragedias: Britannicus (1669), Berenice (1670), Bajazet (1672), Mithridate (1673), Ifigenia (1674) y Fedra (1677). Elegido en la Academia Francesa en 1672, y habiendo alcanzado la cumbre de la gloria gracias a Ifigenia y Fedra, al tiempo que adquiría una cómoda posición financiera, fue convencido por su alto apoyo en la corte de abandonar la 'profesión de la poesía' para buscar el 'glorioso trabajo' de historiador para el rey. Estas 100 citas pretenden dar acceso a su obra monumental a través de una selección de sus pensamientos más impactantes, en un formato accesible para todos.
