	Pierre Corneille
		In this latter year Corneille (who had at last removed his residence from Rouen to Paris in 1662) was included among the list of men of letters pensioned at the proposal of Colbert.
		Corneille, unlike many of the great writers of the world, was not driven to wait for the next age to do him justice.

	Pierre Corneille
		PIERRE Corneille's first works were comedies, and none too good; but when, at the age of thirty-one, he produced the Cid, there was erected an important landmark in the history of drama.
		Corneille, conscious of the classic bent of French taste, adhered pretty closely to the so-called Aristotelian rules, yet contrived to produce a tragedy which, in depth of passion, poetic fervor and vigor, far surpassed anything that had so far been seen on the Parisian stage.
		Fontenelle, his nephew, wrote: "The fall of the great Corneille may be reckoned as among the most remarkable examples of the vicissitudes of human affairs; even that of Belisarius asking alms is not more striking." Nevertheless, Corneille justly ranks as a great figure of French drama.

	Corneille, Pierre Criticism and Essays
		Corneille's intense focus on human will, the will striving for freedom, and the fashioning of one's own destiny distinguishes his tragedies from classical Greek dramas, in which humans are depicted as helpless victims of fate.
		Corneille was born into a middle-class family in Rouen and seems to have lived a quiet, retired, bourgeois life.
		Although the decline of Corneille's reputation, begun in his own lifetime, continued throughout the eighteenth century, the next century saw a reappraisal of his place in literary history, and today he is situated in the front rank of French dramatists.

	Pierre Corneille (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		Although Corneille is considered by most critics to be the father of French tragedy, six of his first eight plays were comedies.
		Corneille's temperment, however, was not suited to this rigid environment, and he tended to stray from the Cardinal's outlines, often causing a heated clash between the writer and his employer.
		Corneille followed this success with Cinna (1641) which tells the story of a conspiracy against the first Roman emperor, Augustus Caesar, who outwits his potential murderers by granting them a political pardon rather than attempting to have them executed as they expect, thus proving that he has strength enough to be merciful.

	Pierre Corneille
		Corneille seems to have taken to heart the criticisms levelled at Le Cid, and he wrote nothing for three years (though this time was also taken up with a lawsuit to prevent the creation of a legal office in Rouen on a par with his own).
		Corneille used language not so much to illumine character as to heighten the clash between concepts, hence the "sentences" in his poetry which are memorable even outside their dramatic context.
		Corneille died in his house on the rue d'Argenteuil, Paris, and was buried in the church of Saint-Roch.

	CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Pierre Corneille

	Polyeucte by Pierre Corneille: Introductory Note
		Pierre Corneille was born in Rouen in 1606, the son of an official; was educated by the Jesuits, and practised unsuccessfully as a lawyer.
		The laws to which this type of tragedy sought to conform were not so much truth to nature as the principles which the critics had derived from a somewhat inadequate interpretation of Aristotle and of the practise of the Greek tragedians.
		All of these qualities are admirably exemplified in "Polyeucte"; and in the conduct of the leading personages one may perceive the most persistent trait of this dramatist`s treatment of heroic character - the conquest of the passions by the reason and the will.
