Tartuffe: Or The Hypocrite

Tartuffe (full title: Tartuffe, or The Hypocrite) is one of the most famous theatrical comedies by Moli re. Moli re wrote Tartuffe in 1664. Plot: Orgon's family is up in arms because Orgon and his mother have fallen under the influence of Tartuffe, a pious fraud (and a vagrant prior to Orgon's help). Tartuffe pretends to be pious and to speak with divine authority, and Orgon and his mother no longer take any action without first consulting him. Jean-Baptiste Poquelin, known by his stage name Moli re, (January 15, 1622 - February 17, 1673) was a French playwright and actor who is considered to be one of the greatest masters of comedy in Western literature. Among Moli re's best-known works are Le Misanthrope (The Misanthrope), L' cole des femmes (The School for Wives), Tartuffe ou L'Imposteur, (Tartuffe or the Imposter), L'Avare (The Miser), Le Malade imaginaire (The Imaginary Invalid), and Le Bourgeois Gentilhomme (The Bourgeois Gentleman).
