Book Description
Excerpt from The Works of Moliere, Vol. 5 of 6: A New Translation In the following play, Moliere thought proper sacrifice the regularity of the conduct to the accessory ornaments. As the king was very impatient to have it soon, finished, Moliere had recourse to the celebrated Corneille, who readily complied with his plan; for men truly great are void of jealousy. Quinault furnished the French words, which were set to music by Lully. The royal magnificence with which it was attended in the presentation, and the concourse of famous authors whose talents were all united, the more readily to execute the orders of Lewis XIV. add a new lustre to this piece, which will always be esteemed for several beautiful passages in it, and especially for the new and delicate turn in Cupid's declaration to Psyche.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Works of Moliere, Vol. 2 of 6 The comedy of the Romantic Ladies deserves to be marked among the best of Moliere's performances, although it is not one of the best with regard to the plot. He ventured, in this piece, to forsake the common path of complicated intrigues, to lead us in a comic road, first known by him. The main end of a good comedy appeared to him to be, to criticise the follies and manners which were peculiar to his time. The passion for wit, or rather the abuse they made of it, was a kind of contagious malady then in fashion. The forced bombast style in romances, which the woman admired for the very reasons which have since discredited those works, had got into conversation: In a word, both the quality and common people were affected; and at this conjuncture did the comedy of the Romantic Ladies make its appearance; never was greater success known; the prodigious number of spectators made the company demand double prices at the second representation of it, and the piece run for four months together: It produced a general reformation, people saw themselves in it, laughed, and gave the truest applause to it by forsaking their folly. Mr. Menage, who assisted at the first representation, said to Chapelaine, "You and I both approved of all these follies which have been now so excellently and so sensibly criticized; believe me, we must burn what we have admired, and admire what we have burnt."

Book Description
Excerpt from The Works of Moliere, Vol. 6: The Physician in Spite of Himself; Melicerte; A Comic Pastoral; The Sicilian Rabelais, in the twenty-fourth chapter of the third book of Parzfagmcl, relates that he and some of his friends acted in his youth the moral comedy of him who had espoused and married a dumb wife. The good honest man, her husband, was very earnestly urgent to have the fillet of her tongue untied, and would needs have her speak by any means. At his desire, some pains were taken on her, and partly by the industry of the physician, other part by the expertness of the surgeon, the encyliglotte which she had under her tongue being cut she spoke, and spoke again; yea, within a few hours she spoke so loud, so much, so fiercely, and so long, that her poor husband returned to the same physician for a receipt to make her hold her peace. There are, quoth the physician, many proper remedies in our art to make dumb women speak, but there are none that ever I could learn therein to make them silent. The only cure which I have found out is their husband's deafness. The wretch became within a few weeks thereafter, by virtue of some drugs, charms, or enchantments, which the physician had prescribed unto him, so deaf, that he could not have heard the thundering of nineteen hundred cannons at a salvo. His wife, perceiving that indeed he was as deaf as a door nail, and that her scolding was but in vain, sith that he heard her not, she grew stark mad. Some time after the doctor asked for his fee of the husband who answered, That truly he was deaf, and so was not able to understand what the tenor of' his demand might be. Whereupon the leech bedusted him with a little, I know not what, sort of powder; which rendered him a fool immediately, so great was the stultificating virtue of that strange kind of pulverized dose. Then did this fool of a husband, and his mad wife, join together, and falling on the doctor and the surgeon, did so. Scratch, bethwack, and hang them, that they were left half dead upon the place, so furious were the blows which they received. I never in my lifetime laughed so much, as at the acting of that buffoonery. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
