Racine's plays displayed his mastery of the dodecasyllabic (12 syllable) French alexandrine. His writing is renowned for its elegance, purity, speed, and fury,[7][8] and for what American poet Robert Lowell described as a "diamond-edge",[9] and the "glory of its hard, electric rage".[10] Racine's dramaturgy is marked by his psychological insight, the prevailing passion of his characters, and the nakedness[clarification needed] of both plot and stage.
