Antoine de Montchrestien’s tragedies have been the object of increased critical attention over the years. This annotated edition makes two of his most interesting plays available – Hector, often recognised as one of the masterpieces of French regular rhetorical tragedy, and La Reine d’Escosse, a showcase of Montchrestien’s concept of tragedy.
Antoine de Montchrestien was a 17th-century French soldier, dramatist, adventurer and economist and one of the founders of 17th-century French drama.
C. N. Smith was lecturer in French at the University of East Anglia, UK.
