«Iphigénie» is the tragedy by Jean Racine, published by Editions Larousse in paperback (160 pages, in French).
Tragedy in five acts based on the myth of Iphigenia, daughter of Agamemnon, whom her father must sacrifice to appease Artemis. Agamemnon's ambition, Achilles' thirst for glory, Clytemnestra's pride and Ériphile's jealousy turn the young woman into a victim of human passions that the divine oracle only reveals.
The play premiered in 1674; this edition was published in 1986 and includes notes by Danièle Achach.
Suitable for literature students and readers interested in seventeenth-century classical theater.
