‎Sammelband containing seven work by the two brothers Pierre and Thomas Corneille. Pierre Corneille is a foundational figure in French theater and one of the most significant playwrights of the 17th century often referred to as “The Farther of French Tragedy”. He is generally considered one of the three great 17th-century French dramatists, along with Molière and Racine. However, all the present works being later editions, they were all published during their lifetime and two of them (Agésilas and Antiochus) were published same year as the originals.
