Sobre este artículo
Paris: Societe Francaise D'imprimerie et De Librairie, 1907. Quarto. Inscribed by Olivier to Julien Bertheat. Portrait frontispiece, viii, 347 pages, 66 unnumbered leaves of plates with descriptive tissue guards. A student of Voltaire and a follower of his social and aesthetic views, Le Kain was the outstanding actor of enlightened classicism. He opposed salon-like, aristocratic refinement in acting and, drawing upon the traditions of M. Baron and A. Lecouvreur, created characterizations full of civic enthusiasm and majestic simplicity. Lekain reformed theatrical costumes by seeking historical and ethnographic authenticity in the characters' clothes. Bound in a modern vellum over boards, endpapers renewed, brown leather spine label gilt, portion of the original wrapper bound in at the rear, errata, unopened after pages 193, corners bumped, damp stain to lower corner of half-title. A very nice copy.
