In 1757, Klopstock and Gessner published La Mort d’Adam and La Mort d’Abel, the success of which was affirmed by the numerous theatrical adaptations which took place up until the July Monarchy. The article examines this corpus and asks whether it renews the theatre of the sacred via an examination of action, character, discourse, and spectacle. A subtle balancing act is needed in order to avoid coldness, horror, materialism, and heresy.
