Dipus

by Voltaire

Book Overview

OEdipus was written when Voltaire was but nineteen years of age. It was played for the first time in 1718, and ran for forty-five nights. Du Fr sne, a celebrated actor, and of the same age as the author, played the part of OEdipus; and Madame Desmar ts, a famous actress, did Jocaste, and soon after quitted the stage. In this edition, the part of Philoctetes is restored, and stands exactly as it was in the first representation. Wilder Publications...
