Download or read book Le Cid written by Pierre Corneille and published by . This book was released on 1987 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The stories of the Cid are based on the life of the Spanish warrior Rodrigo Díaz de Vivar, who lived approximately from 1043 until 1099. The real "Cid" seems to have fought for both Muslims and Christians at different times and appears to have been a sellsword figure. In the play, however, he is lauded solely as a Christian soldier. The name "El Cid" was derived from the Arabic word for lord ("sayyid") and made Spanish, and further given a French article for Corneille's version. To this day, the Cid remains a popular Spanish folklore character, who has inspired many stories and works of art.

Download or read book Orientalism in French Classical Drama written by Michèle Longino and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2006-03-16 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Michèle Longino examines the ways in which Mediterranean exoticism inflects the themes represented in French classical drama. Longino explores plays by Corneille, Molière and Racine; Le Cid, Médée, and Le bourgeois gentilhomme among others. She offers a consideration of the role the staging of the near Orient played in shaping a sense of French colonial identity. Drawing on histories, travel journals, memoirs and correspondence, and bringing together literary and historical concerns, Longino considers these dramatisations in the context of French-Ottoman relations at the time of their production.

This book was released on 2016-06-24 with total page 24 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Cid Theme in France in 1600 Since the Observations sur le Cid of de Scudery, the literary indebtedness of Corneille's Cid to Guillen de Castro's Las M ocedades del Cid has been minutely traced by a host of critics. In accord ance with their preferences for classical or for more romantic forms of art, or in accordance with their national sympathies, they have entered wearisome pleas for the superiority of the Spanish or of the French poet. In the estimation of some German and Spanish critics and of a few modern Scuderys, Corneille is only an imi tator, hardly more than the translator of Las Mocedades del Cid; to most French critics, on the other hand, he remains a genius who did de Castro the honor of transforming his in ated and digressive play into a restrained and classical masterpiece. Nearly all critics, however, agree in one respect: Corneille has intensified the dra matic effect of the play by concentrating upon the moral problem of Chimene, upon her desire for vengeance and her love for the man who has killed her father in a duel. The comparison of both texts confirms this View. To allow the development of the internal drama, Corneille has markedly diminished the number of incidents; he has given a deeper and a more finely shaded analysis of the motives of his characters. Ernest Merimee, for instance, restates this as follows in the preface to his edition of the first part of Las Mocedades del Cid: Le principal merite de Corneille n'est certaine ment ni dans l' invention, ni neme dans la perfection de chaque partie, mais dans ce fait qu'il a mis en une lumiere plus vive encore que n' avait fait Castro cc qui fait le fond et 1' interet eternel du drame: le lutte de la passion et du devoir, de l' amour et de l' honneur, chez Rodrigue et chez Chimene.
