Notă biografică
Jean
Racine
was
born
in
1639
at
La
Ferté
Milon,
sixty
miles
east
of
Paris.
In
1677,
when
he
had
ten
plays
to
his
credit
and
was
high
in
favor
with
both
the
court
and
the
public,
he
abandoned
the
theatre,
which
was
regarded
as
far
from
respectable
by
the
Church,
and
joined
the
Establishment
as
Royal
Historiographer.
It
was
only
after
a
silence
of
twelve
years
that
he
wrote
his
last
two
plays
(both
on
religious
subjects),
Esther
and
Athaliah.
He
died
in
1699.
