«L'Avare» is Molière's comedy, published by Hatier in paperback (157 pages, in French).
Harpagon, a miserly old man, plans to marry his children to wealthy people while he himself intends to wed the young Marianne, with whom his son Cléante is in love. Through intrigues and misunderstandings, Molière satirizes avarice, the abuse of paternal power, and the social hypocrisy of the seventeenth century.
It belongs to the Classiques & Cie Collège collection; it includes the complete text, an illustrated dossier, and documentary research on money in the seventeenth century.
Designed for secondary school students and for those approaching classical French theatre, with supporting materials for classroom work.
Jean-Baptiste Poquelin, known by his stage name Molière, was a French playwright, actor, and poet, widely regarded as one of the great writers in the French language and world literature. His extant works include comedies, farces, tragicomedies, comédie-ballets, and more. His plays have been translated into every major living language and are performed at the Comédie-Française more often than those of any other playwright today. His influence is such that the French language is often referred to as the "language of Molière".
