End of a war where we cry misfortune to the vanquished. Hostage-taking. Blackmail on a child. Conspiracy. Handling. Passions betrayed and drowned in blood. Fanaticism. Madness. Final bloodbath. Horrors of today? No. This is the summary of the Andromache tragedy , on the aftermath of the Trojan War, which launched Racine's great career in 1667. Here it is impossible both to love and to be loved, to possess both love and power. A tragedy of all time.
