Andromache
Av Jean Racine, 1988.Del av serien Applause Books.
Love? What does ÊloveÊ mean in this fearsome drama? Not much that is affirmative. Not much to heat the heart of a sentimental spectator. It signifies a passion that amounts to illness an alternately aching and frantic desire that cannot be slaked. The three characters who love strive to conquer love by straining their will power to its elastic limits.ÞAnd what does ÊlovedÊ mean here? Not the ecstasy of glowing with selflessness and basking in another's affection but a tormenting burden that cannot be shaken off can only be readjusted to serve as an instrument of convenience or harm. ÞÊfrom the Afterword by Albert BermelÊ
