Autorenporträt
Pierre Corneille was a prominent French tragedian born on June 6, 1606, in Rouen, France. He is widely regarded as one of the greatest dramatists of the 17th century, alongside Moli re and Racine, and is often considered a founding figure in French classical tragedy. Corneille's works, which include plays like Le Cid, Horace, and Cinna, are known for their exploration of complex human emotions, moral dilemmas, and the struggles between personal desires and societal expectations. His mastery of dramatic structure and character development helped shape the evolution of French theater. Corneille's father, Pierre Corneille, was a prosperous merchant, and his mother, Marthe le Pesant de Boisguilbert, came from a notable family. He had a brother, Thomas Corneille, who also became a successful playwright. Corneille spent much of his life in Paris, where he died on October 1, 1684, at the age of 78. His legacy continues to influence theater, and his works remain central to the study of classical French drama.
