DJ blurb on Corneille & Racine's Six Plays:

The Cid and Cinna By Corneille
Phaedra, Andromache, Britannicus and Athaliah By Racine

The most important works of Corneille and Racine are gathered into one volume in translations worthy of the highest standards of scholarship, and are offered at a price within the reach of all lovers of traditionally great literature. The matchless beauty and intensity of these plays, the universality of their themes and their noble poetic diction recommend them to the present-day reader, who is enabled to share in the treasures of classic French letters.
