En 1640, Corneille a conu sa vritable premire tragdie. L'affrontement de deux cits, Rome et Albe, est symbolis par celui de deux familles, les Horaces et les Curiaces. Les guerres nationales donnent la tragdie de Corneille une nouvelle actualit, greffe sur un trs antique fond mythique. Horace est une pice aux sens multiples : historique, politique, amoureux ; elle contient aussi un magnifique loge de l'amiti virile, et une philosophie du hros, fait pour la solitude et pour la mort. Corneille offre autant de guerres et de sang que le journal tlvis, mais il y ajoute le sens et la beaut : il aide penser la violence nue.
