Le Tartuffe Ou L'Imposteur: Comedie (1669) (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781104138691)

Le Tartuffe Ou L'Imposteur: Comedie (1669) is a play written by the French playwright Moliere. The play tells the story of Tartuffe, a hypocritical and manipulative religious zealot who ingratiates himself into the household of the wealthy Orgon. Tartuffe uses his supposed piety to gain the trust and admiration of Orgon and his family, and begins to exert an increasingly sinister influence over them. As Tartuffe's true character is gradually revealed, the family must work together to expose him and save themselves from his treachery. Le Tartuffe Ou L'Imposteur: Comedie is a biting satire of religious hypocrisy and the dangers of blind faith, and remains one of Moliere's most enduring and influential works.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
