Amostras da genialidade de Moliè O Tartufo nos apresenta Orgon, devoto religioso que se deixa impressionar pelas supostas virtudes do personagem-título; Dom Juan não se limita a explorar as fragilidades morais do seu célebre protagonista, levando o leitor a uma análise bem mais complexa do mito; em O doente imaginário, acompanhamos um hipocondríaco determinado a se livrar de males que não o acometem.

4,618 books1,506 followersSophisticated comedies of French playwright Molière, pen name of Jean Baptiste Poquelin, include
Tartuffe
(1664),
The Misanthrope
(1666), and
The Bourgeois Gentleman
(1670).
French literary figures, including Molière and Jean de la Fontaine, gathered at Auteuil, a favorite place.
People know and consider Molière, stage of Jean-Baptiste Poquelin, also an actor of the greatest masters in western literature. People best know l'Ecole des femmes (The School for Wives), l'Avare ou l'École du mensonge (The Miser), and le Malade imaginaire (The Imaginary Invalid) among dramas of Molière.
From a prosperous family, Molière studied at the Jesuit Clermont college (now lycée Louis-le-Grand) and well suited to begin a life in the theater. While 13 years as an itinerant actor helped to polish his abilities, he also began to combine the more refined elements with ccommedia dell'arte.
Through the patronage of the brother of Louis XIV and a few aristocrats, Molière procured a command performance before the king at the Louvre. Molière performed a classic of [authore:Pierre Corneille] and le Docteur amoureux (The Doctor in Love), a farce of his own; people granted him the use of Salle du Petit-Bourbon, a spacious room, appointed for theater at the Louvre. Later, people granted the use of the Palais-Royal to Molière. In both locations, he found success among the Parisians with les Précieuses ridicules (The Affected Ladies), l'École des maris</i> (<i>The School for Husbands</i>), and <i>[book:l'École des femmes (The School for Wives). This royal favor brought a pension and the title "Troupe du Roi" (the troupe of the king). Molière continued as the official author of court entertainments.
Molière received the adulation of the court and Parisians, but from moralists and the Church, his satires attracted criticisms. From the Church, his attack on religious hypocrisy roundly received condemnations, while people banned performance of Don Juan . From the stage, hard work of Molière in so many theatrical capacities began to take its toll on his health and forced him to take a break before 1667.
From pulmonary tuberculosis, Molière suffered. In 1673 during his final production of le Malade imaginaire (The Imaginary Invalid), a coughing fit and a haemorrhage seized him as Argan, the hypochondriac. He finished the performance but collapsed again quickly and died a few hours later. In time in Paris, Molière completely reformed.

Terminei de ler os contos “O Tartufo” e “Dom Juan”.
Achei a leitura leve e descontraída, mas tinha expectativas mais altas. O Tartufo é bastante ousado em tratar o tema da falsa santidade e parece ter inspirado A Aldeia de Stépantchikovo e seus Habitantes, de Dostoiévski. O antagonista lembra bastante a figura mesquinha e surreal de Fomá Fomich.
No caso de Dom Juan, o conto é bastante engraçado. Me tirou boas risadas ao longo da leitura.
Recomendo como leitura leve, mas não espere uma grande profundidade ou desenvolvimento dos personagens. Nesse sentido eu achei O Mercador de Veneza, de Shakespare, melhor.

Uma peça curtinha que expõe como a religião pode ser corrompida pelos chamados cidadãos de bem para alcançar seus próprios objetivos, enquanto também critica a credulidade dos que são facilmente enganados por aparências. O Tartufo, dos tempos de Molière, sobrevive aos nossos dias.
