Extractions: Britannica CD Index Articles Dictionary Help Within eight months of the premiere of the great playwright had cut all links with the commercial stage, married a pious, unintellectual young woman of 24 or 25 (a connection by marriage of the Vitarts), and acceptedwith his friend the critic and satirist Nicolas Boileau the high honour of writing the official history of the reign. There will always be debate about Racine's motives for this sudden retirement. It was said that his present mistress, the actress , had played him false (but she was notoriously promiscuous, anyway). It is true that had been challenged for a short time by a rival play, and Racine, with Boileau, had been implicated in an ugly episode as supposed authors of scurrilous sonnets against Philippe Mancini, duc de Nevers, supporter of the other playwright, Jacques Pradonbut these were passing clouds. Racine spoke later of having turned away from a life of sinful dissipation, and the son who wrote his life gives a radical conversion as the sole cause of the retirement. Some modern scholars suggest that, with Racine had said all it was in him to say; or that he had shocked himself by this powerful picture of a world where the gods could be evil.

Extractions: Britannica CD Index Articles Dictionary Help French dramatic poet and master of French classical tragedy. His fame rests on his noble tragedies Britannicus Bajazet (1672), and Racine, born of a provincial family of modest excise or legal officials about 40 miles northeast of Paris, was left motherless at the age of one, fatherless and penniless at three. When he was nine his paternal grandmother became a widow and took him with her to the convent of Port -Royal des Champs in the Chevreuse Valley, near Paris. There she took vows, joining a daughter and a sister both of whom were nuns, and another sister, Mme Vitart, who lived with her family near the convent. This was Racine's first stroke of fortune. Around this community lived a handful of distinguished scholars and enlightened teachers who had retired to live lives of austere seclusion under the influence of Jansenism Promenades de Port-Royal Back in Paris he followed his own bent and plunged into a career of authorship. His only literary associate of merit at that time was the future fabulist Jean de La Fontaine.
