Cid, The

Tragicomedy by Pierre Corneille (1637) based on the epic of El Cid. The lovers Rodrigue and Chimène are separated by a quarrel between their fathers. Rodrigue kills Chimène's father in a duel, but then defends Seville heroically against an attack by the Moors, winning the name of Cid (Arabic sayyid, ‘master’). After Rodrigue defeats Chimène's champion in a second duel, the lovers are reconciled by the king of Castille.
