The study is based on a literary analysis and evaluation of the romantic features of the classical playwright: Jean Racine. / While discussing elements comprising the general definition of Romanticism such as Isolation, Love, Fate and Death, this work examines Racine's eleven tragedies according to the above criteria. At the same time, a comparative approach modeled on Ross Ridge's The Hero in French Romantic Literature presents the different aspects of the racinian classico-romantic hero. / The conclusion posits the basic aspects of the dichotomy: Classic-Romantic/Romantic-Classic from which emerges what the writer of this dissertation has called "the Racinian Fusion." / Source: Dissertation Abstracts International, Volume: 49-09, Section: A, page: 2678. / Major Professor: Azzurra B.
