The Misanthrope and Tartuffe - Softcover
Two classic plays translated by a Pulitzer Prize-winning poet into English verse. In The Misanthrope, society itself is indicted and the impurity of its critic’s motives is exposed. In Tartuffe, the bigoted and prudish Orgon falls completely under the power of the wily Tartuffe. Introductions by Richard Wilbur.

Book Description Paperback. Condition: New. The Misanthrope, one of Moliere's most popular plays, is a searching comic study of falsity, shallowness, and self-righteouness. The misanthrope in this case is Alceste, a man whose conscience and sincerity are too rigorous for his time. In Tartuffe the title character, a wily opportunist and swindler, affects sanctity and gains complete ascendancy over Orgon, a rich bourgeois who in his middle years has become a bigot and prude. Only when Orgon actually witnesses Tartuffe's attempt to seduce his wife does he come to his senses. Poet Richard Wilbur won a share of the Bollingen Translation Prize for his translations. 326p.
