Based on the real life of the seventeenth century French dramatist of the same name, "Cyrano de Bergerac" is Edmond Rostand's classic romantic play. Cyrano, a cadet in the French Army, is a talented duelist, poet, and musician, however he has extreme self-doubt in matters of love due to the large size of his nose. Cyrano is conflicted by his inability to summon the confidence to tell the woman that he adores, Roxane, how he truly feels. He writes her a letter expressing his love with the intent of giving it to her during a rendezvous, however, when he learns that Roxane is in love with another, a handsome new cadet, Christian de Neuvillette, he withholds his admission. Christian lacks the intellect and wit to woo Roxane and enlists the help of Cyrano who, despite being against his own self-interest, agrees. First performed in 1897, "Cyrano de Bergerac", is one of the most popular plays in the French language, which brilliantly dramatizes the idea that beauty is only skin deep and that true love is about more than just physical attractiveness. This edition is printed on premium acid-free paper and follows the translation of Gladys Thomas and Mary F. Guillemard.

Le théâtre d'Edmond Rostand tient une place unique pour son temps dans l'histoire de la littérature française. Certains ont dit que le poète était le représentant d'un des derniers rameaux du Romantisme. Ce n'est pas tout à fait exact. Rostand a créé un genre et s'est montré si original qu'il n'a pas eu de successeur et n'a pas vieilli. Les malintentionnés qui avaient murmuré que Cyrano était une chance qui ne se retrouverait plus, durent reconnaître, avec l'Aiglon, les génie de celui qui avait rendu à la foule le goût de la poésie dramatique en s'adressant au coeur, en caressant l'esprit et en parlant avec une extraordinaire richesse verbale une langue claire, ailée et accessible à tous. L'oeuvre d'Edmond Rostand est celle d'un poète qui marque une date dans la littérature française. Créateur d'une originalité indiscutée, il reste, plein de grandeur, un isolé triomphant et inimitable. - Maurice Garçon, de l'Académie Française.
On a trop souvent fait d'Edmond Rostand l'homme d'une seule pièce, Cyrano. Certes, il y a bien eu l'Aiglon et Chantecler, mais ce ne sont là que des demi-succès, dixit la critique, que l'histoire littéraire ne saurait retenir puisque de cette époque elle ne voudrait se souvenir que des Maudits. De cette méprise vont naître deux lacunes: en isolant Cyrano de l'ensemble de l'¿uvre, cette pièce s'est vue amputer de ses principales dimensions, tandis que le lecteur est privé, depuis cent ans déjà, des autres univers du poète. C'est cette injustice qu'il s'agit ici de réparer avec la publication de La Samaritaine.
