Popis: | This work deals with the term tragi-comédie in the first decades of the 17th century in France, when the standards of the literary genre were established: a novelistic and sentimental topic, a happy ending, and the mixture of the tragic and the familiar. Then we focus on the figure of Jean Mairet, author of six tragicomedies in his theatrical production from 1625 to 1643: Chryséide et Arimand, La Virginie, L’Illustre Corsaire, Le Roland furieux, L’Athénaïs and La Sidonie. Mairet would reign on the French stage in the third decade of the 17th century, later eclipsed only by Pierre Corneille. Of his tragicomedies, La Virginie is one of those that is not based on any other fiction, being entirely invented by the author, who uses language to differentiate some characters from others, whether lofty and noble, melancholic or sorrowful, or insidious and malicious. |
