Word as action [Elektronisk resurs] Racine, rhetoric, and theatrical language / Michael Hawcroft.

• This work explores the theatricality of Jean Racine's language and takes as its analytical tool two relatively neglected parts of rhetoric ('inventio' and 'dispositio'), highlighting the dramatic excitement created by characters who constantly engage in verbal battle trying to dominate those around them.
