The Misanthrope (Translated by Henri Van Laun with an Introduction by Eleanor F. Jourdain)

Více o knize

Molière, a master of French comedic drama, uses his own bourgeois upbringing to satirize aristocratic society in "The Misanthrope." The play centers on Alceste, a gentleman disillusioned by the superficiality of social life, and Célimène, who embodies the very manners he detests. Their relationship highlights the comedic errors and hypocrisies of their world. This edition features a translation by Henri Van Laun and includes an introduction by Eleanor F. Jourdain, printed on premium acid-free paper.
