In Les Tragiques, the tormented figures of Jonas and Jeremy serve as analogies for Agrippa d'Aubigne's own situation. Without the skill, the natural inclination, or the desire to take on their mission, prophets end up alienated. Though they aspire to performance and efficiency, they are usually powerless and suspiciously rejected. A prophet's fundamental problem is a lack of recognition.
