Phaidra: 5-näytöksinen runomittainen murhenäytelmä by Jean Racine
"Phaidra: 5-näytöksinen runomittainen murhenäytelmä" by Jean Racine is a tragedy written in 1677. Set in ancient Greece, the play explores forbidden passion when Queen Phaedra falls desperately in love with her stepson Hippolytus during her husband Theseus's absence. When Theseus returns unexpectedly, dark secrets and devastating misunderstandings unfold. Jealousy, guilt, and false accusations spiral toward catastrophic consequences. Based on Greek mythology, this alexandrine verse drama examines the destructive power of illicit desire
and the tragic costs of concealed truth. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
