The Countess of Escarbagnas
In "The Countess of Escarbagnas," Molière masterfully blends sharp wit with a keen social critique, crafting a comedic exploration of the folly of aristocratic pretensions and the absurdities of love. Set against the backdrop of 17th-century French society, the play unveils the comical misadventures of the eponymous countess as she navigates her romantic entanglements and the farcical manners of her peers.

The Jealousy of le Barbouillé (La Jalousie du Barbouillé)
La Jalousie du Barbouillé is a comedy in one act by Molière. Le Barbouille is married to Angelique, but he is not satisfied with his wife who enrages him. Barbouille asks the doctor for his advice on how to punish her. In the next scene, we see Angélique appear, who also complains about her husband to her lover Valère. Readers will be thrilled by Moliere's dramatic comedy.
The Misanthrope and Other Plays
The Misanthrope, Moliere's richly sophisticated comic drama is accompanied in this volume by The Would--be Gentleman, another tale of a dangerously deluded and obsessive hero. Tartuffe dares to take on the subject of religious hypocrisy. Also included are Such Foolish Affected Ladies and Those Learned Ladies, both newly translated for this edition. Finally, The Doctor Despite Himself is a hilarious example of Moliere's long-standing vendetta against the medical profession.
