| book description |

Following three volumes devoted to Jean Racineâ€™s earlier theatre, this volume examines his two late tragedies inspired by Greek myth, IphigÃ©nie (1674) and PhÃ¨dre (1677). This international collection of essays by experts in the field covers a wide range of themes and approaches, including mythological, literary and environmental contexts, interpretation of the characters, staging, performance, reception, adaptation, and translation. With PhÃ¨dre traditionally having garnered more attention than IphigÃ©nie, this sustained consideration of the two works in tandem with each other throws exciting new light upon a dramatist at the height of his theatrical powers.
