«Horace» is the tragedy by Pierre Corneille, published by Nouveaux Classiques Larousse in paperback (139 pages, in French).
The drama focuses on Roman heroism and the conflict between family ties and absolute loyalty to Rome. After Horace's triumph over the Albans, the play raises the question of how far patriotic duty extends, with an ending that sparked lively controversy from its premiere in 1640.
The edition includes a biographical and historical introduction, a glossary, explanatory notes, thematic documentation, a questionnaire and homework topics, edited by Bernard Masson.
For students of French literature or readers who want to approach 17th-century classical theatre with supporting material.
