CAMPISTRON, Jean Galbert de.

Andronic, tragédie.

[France: late 17th/early 18th century] 12mo. Paginated: [2],161-234p. Quires signed G8-12, HI-12, K1-9. Limp parchment covers; manuscript spine title. Half-title only - with small marginal tear (repaired). Part of a collected edition, late 17th or early 18th century. **** Andronic was derived from Saint-Réal's account of Philip II, his wife, and her stepson. Perhaps because he did not wish to portray an ancestor of Louis XIV in an unfavourable light, Campistron disguised his subject by setting the scene at Constantinople in the time of John V Paleologus. The play has all the hallmarks of tragedy - a young hero resisting his passion for his stepmother, a suspicious, lonely and vengeful Emperor, a pathetic consort obliged to sacrifice her love to interests of state, and two courtiers who put their mutual enmity aside in order to plot for their common advantage. Andronic has been considered Campistron's finest play, one that had been acted 242 times between 1685 when it was first published and 1765.

CAMPISTRON, Jean Galbert de.

Oeuvres choisies. Édition stéréotype, d'après le procédé de Firmin Didot.

Paris: De l'Imprimerie et de la Fonderie Stéréotypes de P. Didot l'ainé, et de Firmin Didot, 1810. 18mo. xiv, 198, [2]p. Red cloth, leather-backed. Small dent in rear cover, otherwise in very good condition. Between 1683 and 1709 Campistron turned out 9 tragedies, 2 comedies and, in collaboration with Lully, 3 'tragédies en musique'. To a certain extent Campistron was an imitator of Corneille and Racine, but not so much as to accuse him of lack of originality. Some of his tragedies are heroic and patriotic; others pyschological and pathetic. The conflict of generations and the fatal destructiveness of incestuous love are recurrent themes.
