Jean Anouilh Knihy
23. jún 1910 – 3. október 1987
Jean Anouilh bol francúzsky dramatik, ktorého dielo sa vyznačuje majstrovským zvládnutím jazyka a hlbokým skúmaním ľudskej existencie. Anouilh vo svojej tvorbe často skúmal témy ako morálka, povinnosť a osobná sloboda, často s využitím alegórie a irónie na preskúmanie zložitých tém. Jeho hry, ktoré sám rozdeľoval do kategórií podľa tónu od tragických po fantastické, sa vyznačujú ostrovtipom a psychologickou hĺbkou. Anouilhov dôraz na precízne remeslo, inšpirovaný jeho otcom, krajčírom, sa odráža v precíznosti jeho dialógov a stavbe hry. Jeho nadčasové skúmanie ľudskej povahy a spoločenských konvencií v ňom zanechalo nezmazateľnú stopu v svetovej dráme.

But it is the glory of her life rather than the tragedy that is the triumphant climax of the play.5 women, 13 men
