'Esther' is a tragedy by Jean Racine, translated by Rev. J. Rice. This play, based on the Old Testament story of Esther, showcases Racine’s mastery of French classical drama. The narrative follows Esther, a Jewish woman who becomes Queen of Persia and bravely intervenes to save her people from destruction. Racine’s elegant verse and profound exploration of faith, power, and identity make 'Esther' a compelling and enduring work. This meticulously translated edition preserves the literary and historical value of Racine’s original text, offering readers a powerful glimpse into 17th-century French theater and its engagement with biblical themes.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
