Racine

The 1987 The Vinaver Colloquium on Racine, held in Manchester in 1987, brought together an international gathering of scholars, whose contributions ranged over a variety of topics, including lexis, prosody and musicality, theatrical technique and tragic vision, ritual and mythic inspiration. The collected papers, firmly modern in their different approaches, are a fruitful continuation of Eugène Vinaver's own work on Racine. Papers in French are summarised in English and vice versa.
