Más información sobre el libro

Set in 11th-century Spain, this tragicomedy explores themes of honor, love, and conflict through the story of the legendary hero El Cid. With a rich backdrop of historical and cultural significance, the play sparked intense debate over dramatic conventions, particularly during the Querelle du Cid. Despite its acclaim and popularity, it faced criticism from the Académie française for deviating from classical unities. Corneille’s work remains a pivotal piece in the evolution of French theater, blending emotional depth with societal commentary.
