Book excerpt: The tradition of the poet-translator is as old as English literature. Chaucer made a version of Le Roman de la Rose; Pope, of Homer; Longfellow, of Dante. Richard Wilbur, one of America's most distinguished young poets, has followed in this tradition. Moreover, in Molier̀e he has chosen a dramatist whose subtle and translucent verse has qualities in common with his own. He has translated Molier̀e's great neoclassic comedy into rhymed couplets of epigrammatic brilliance. The Misanthrope, which has always been one of Molier̀e's most popular plays, tells the story of a man whose conscience and sincerity were too rigorous for his age. It is a searching comic study of falsity, of shallowness, and-in the hero's case-of self-righteousness. This masterpiece of seventeenth-century drama, whose theme is wholly and meaningfully contemporary, has now received full justice in its finest English translation.

Book excerpt: 'The Plain Dealer' is a comedy of no manners which attacks the double-dealing codes of Wycherly's society in all their varied guises; in the supercilious forms and slavish ceremonies of a Lord Plausible, whose empty compliments debase the currency in which true merit should be paid; in the malicious gossip of a school for friends; and even in the perversion of that great plain dealer, justice.

This book was released on 2018-04-20 with total page 90 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle.

Book excerpt: The classic comedy about seventeenth-century French society—and a man who despises everyone. This play in verse, which debuted in 1666 in Paris, lives on as one of the greatest masterpieces of stage comedy. It follows Alceste—who constantly bemoans the flaws, foibles, and hypocrisies of the human race—and his competition with many other suitors for the hand of the alluring and flirtatious Celimene. In addition to its sheer entertainment value as an intriguing tale of romantic rivalries, The Misanthrope sparks debate on questions of honesty, idealism, and social niceties to this day.

Book excerpt: The play satirizes the hypocrisies of French aristocratic society, but it also engages a more serious tone when pointing out the flaws that all humans possess. The play differs from other farces at the time by employing dynamic characters like Alceste and Célimène as opposed to the traditionally flat characters used by most satirists to criticize problems in society. It also differs from most of Molière's other works by focusing more on character development and nuances than on plot progression. The play, though not a commercial success in its time, survives as Molière's best known work today.
