Saint Genest and Venceslas is a play written by French playwright Jean Rotrou in 1646, which was published in 1907. The play is set in ancient Rome and tells the story of Saint Genest, a former actor who is converted to Christianity and becomes a martyr. The play also features the character of Venceslas, a Christian prince who is forced to renounce his faith by his pagan father. The two characters' stories intertwine as they both struggle with their faith and the consequences of their beliefs. Rotrou's play explores themes of religious persecution, faith, and redemption, and is considered one of his most significant works. The 1907 edition of the play features an introduction by French literary critic Albert Pauphilet.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
