While Amurat, the sultan of the Ottoman Empire, wages war against the Persians in the distance, his favorite, Roxane, has full authority over the seraglio. Secretly in love with Bajazet, the Sultan's brother, she offers to bring him to power on the condition that he marries her, otherwise he will perish. And Bajazet has no other choice than to betray Atalide, whom he loves, or to go to his death.
Jean-Baptiste Racine was a French dramatist, one of the three great playwrights of 17th-century France, along with Molière and Corneille, as well as an important literary figure in the Western tradition and world literature. Racine was primarily a tragedian, producing such "examples of neoclassical perfection" as Phèdre, Andromaque, and Athalie. He did write one comedy, Les Plaideurs, and a muted tragedy, Esther, for the young.
