«Comédies de Courteline» is a collection of three plays by Georges Courteline, published by Hachette Education in paperback (160 pages, in French).
The volume brings together La Peur des coups, Les Boulingrin and La Paix chez soi, three short farces by Courteline. His characters enter absurd domestic situations: an elderly parasite trapped by a hysterical couple, a jealous and vain husband, and an office worker abandoned by his frivolous wife. The author combines incisive dialogue, satire and a farcical tone to portray memorable marital scenes.
Hachette Education published it in 2008 in the Bibliocollège collection (no. 69), aimed at the French school market; the edition includes the full annotated text, questionnaires and supplementary material.
Intended for students of French or for readers who want to approach French comic theatre with didactic support.
Georges Courteline born Georges Victor Marcel Moinaux was a French dramatist and novelist, a satirist notable for his sharp wit and cynical humor.
