Tancrede, Tragedie: En Vers Croises, Et En Cinq Actes (1761) by Voltaire is a French tragedy written in verse and composed of five acts. The play tells the story of Tancrede, a Christian knight who falls in love with Clorinde, a Muslim warrior. The play is set during the Crusades and explores themes of love, war, and religious conflict. As Tancrede and Clorinde's love grows, they are torn apart by their opposing beliefs and the war between their people. The play ends tragically with the death of both Tancrede and Clorinde. Voltaire's writing style is characterized by his use of rhymed couplets and his sharp wit, which is evident throughout the play. Overall, Tancrede is a powerful and poignant tragedy that explores complex themes and emotions.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
