Jean RACINE

Louis Humbert was an eminent 19th-century Latinist and pedagogue, whose "classical" editions (often published by Garnier or L. Hachette) trained generations of students.
Unlike Racine's great "profane" tragedies(Phèdre, Andromaque), Esther reintroduces the ancient, sung chorus, giving it a unique lyrical and religious dimension.
Very good condition.
