Bajazet

"The time to which this tragedy relates is much later than that of any other of Racine's historical plays. The capture of Babylon (or rather Bagdad) from the Persians by Sultan Amurath IV, on which the catastrophe of the plot depends, occurred only a year before the poet's birth, viz 1638." - Summary by the Translator Cast list: Bajazet, Brother of Sultan Amurath:VocalPenguin [https://librivox.org/reader/14768] Roxana, Sultana, the favorite of Sultan Amurath:Matea Bracic [https://librivox.org/reader/13717] Atalide, a Turkish Damsel of Royal Blood:Availle [https://librivox.org/reader/4174] Achmet, the Grand Vizier:ToddHW [https://librivox.org/reader/6754] Osman, Friend of the Grand Vizier:Alan Mapstone [https://librivox.org/reader/7170] Fatima, a Slave of the Sultana:Jenn Broda [https://librivox.org/reader/13140] Zara, a Slave of Atalide:Sonia [https://librivox.org/reader/10179] Stage Directions:Larry Wilson [https://librivox.org/reader/8425] Editing:ToddHW [https://librivox.org/reader/6754]
