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.
