I was surprised the story itself was also a great book. mobi, azw, epub, kindle Description: Review Verse drama in five acts by Edmond Rostand, performed in 1897 and published the following year. Set in 17th-century Paris, the action revolves around the emotional problems of the noble, swashbuckling Cyrano, who, despite his many gifts, feels that no woman can ever love him because he has an enormous nose. Secretly in love with the lovely Roxane, Cyrano agrees to help his inarticulate rival, Christian, win her heart by allowing him to present Cyrano's love poems, speeches, and letters as his own work. Eventually Christian recognizes that Roxane loves him for Cyrano's qualities, not his own, and he asks Cyrano to confess his identity to Roxane; Christian then goes off to a battle that proves fatal. Cyrano remains silent about his own part in Roxane's courtship. As he is dying years later, he visits Roxane and recites one of the love letters. Roxane realizes that it is Cyrano she loves, and he dies content. Cyrano de Bergerac was based only nominally on the 17th-century nobleman of the same name, known for his bold adventures and large nose. -- From the Publisher This is Edmond Rostand's immortal play in which chivalry and wit, bravery and love are forever captured in the timeless spirit of romance. Set in Louis XIII's reign, it is the moving and exciting drama of one of the finest swordsmen in France, gallant soldier, brilliant wit, tragic poet-lover with the face of a clown. Rostand's extraordinary lyric powers gave birth to a universal hero--Cyrano De Bergerac--and ensured his own reputation as author of one of the best-loved plays in the literature of the stage. This translation, by the American poet Brian Hooker, is nearly as famous as the original play itself, and is generally considered to be one of the finest English verse translations ever written.

  • ABSTRACT the Ideal World of Edmond Rostand's Cyrano De
    ABSTRACT The Ideal World of Edmond Rostand’s Cyrano de Bergerac: A Director’s Approach Traci Elizabeth Ledford, M.F.A. Thesis Chairperson: Marion D. Castleberry, Ph.D. Edmond Rostand wrote Cyrano de Bergerac during a time when realism was beginning to assert its dominance over French theatre. Rostand’s masterpiece, with its neo-Romantic attributes, is often perceived as a reaction against the new theatrical movement as well as a celebration of France’s history. The play’s enduring popularity can be attributed to its emphasis on the ideal exemplified in the dynamic and heroic title character. This director’s approach to Cyrano de Bergerac examines the history behind the play including the playwright’s life, work, sources for the play, and its importance in fin- de-siècle France. A thorough analysis of the script and genre helps to initiate dialogues with designers about directorial concepts and helps to guide actors through a production style that supports the text. This study also includes the artistic challenges, concepts, and decisions that shaped choices for the play before concluding with a critical examination of the final product.

  • Rostand's Cyrano De Bergerac
    Rostand’s Cyrano de Bergerac October 2013 These study materials are produced for use with the Bob Jones University Classic Players production. AN EDUCATIONAL OUTREACH OF BOB JONES UNIVERSITY An Introduction to Cyrano de Bergerac Cyrano de Bergerac: An Heroic Comedy in Five Acts premiered in Paris on Dec. 28, 1897, at the theater of Porte-Saint-Martin. The play was both a literary anomaly and a smashing stage success. It brought great acclaim to the young French poet-playwright Edmond Rostand (1868–1918). Soon after enjoying one of the most enthusiastic audience receptions in theater history, Cyrano became popular on stages around the world. In an era in which naturalism and realism prevailed, Rostand had dared to offer his sophisticated audience a heroic comedy in verse. This opulent period piece stood in stark contrast to the mundane “slice of life” drama that was standard fare on the French stage. The works of writers like Emile Zola and Henrik Ibsen centered on such contempo- rary social problems as crime, poverty and illness, bringing the environment of the lower classes into the theater. In contrast, Rostand’s Cyrano, set in 17th-century France, presents poetry, love and idealism in a plot full of high adventure and swashbuckling romance. The action takes place in Paris, on the battlefield at Arras during the Thirty Years’ War and in a sheltered cloister in the French countryside. In addition to a vivid historical backdrop that calls for attractive stage spectacle, Cyrano engages the heart in an exquisite story of unrequited love. The plot is quasi-historical, based on the life of the French soldier-poet-philosopher Savinien Cyrano de Bergerac (1619–1655), a classmate of Moliere and one of the most famous swordsmen of his day.
