About this book

"Mithridate" by Jean Racine is a five-act tragedy written in 1672. Set in the ancient kingdom of Pontus, the play centers on the legendary King Mithridates, who returns unexpectedly after being presumed dead. He discovers his two sons both love Monime, the woman promised to him as queen. As family loyalty collides with forbidden passion, Mithridates plans a daring invasion of Rome while suspecting betrayal within his own house. Themes of love, jealousy, and political ambition drive this dramatic tale toward its fateful conclusion.
