This new verse translation of Edmond Rostand’s classic play offers a reinvigoration of the text with a focus on the poetic elements of the original French. Using rhyming couplets of iambic pentameter to correspond with the Alexandrine couplets of the original, this translation achieves the poetic beauty of the original while preserving the structural integrity and seriousness of the text through enjambment, alliteration, and slant rhymes. This edition includes explanatory footnotes that provide insight and understanding to readers.
