«Lorenzaccio» is the romantic drama by Alfred de Musset, published by Flammarion in paperback (277 pages, in French).
Set in Medici Florence, the play follows Lorenzo, cousin of the tyrant Alessandro de' Medici, who secretly plans to assassinate him to free the city and restore the republican cause. Musset portrays his inner struggle between cynicism and idealism, and the moral price of a heroic act that brings him closer to self-destruction.
Written in 1834, this 2008 French edition belongs to the GF collection (no. 1368) and includes a dossier with introduction and notes by Florence Naugrette.
For students of French literature and readers wishing to approach nineteenth-century romantic theatre.
