«L'avaro. Testo francese a fronte» is Molière's comedy in an Italian-French bilingual edition, published in paperback (192 pages).
In «L'avaro», Harpagon, a miserly old man, prefers money to everything: he charges usurious interest to his own son, agrees to marry off his daughter without a dowry, and is hated even by his children. Written in 1668 and inspired by Plautus's Aulularia, the comedy shows how his avarice makes him a victim of himself.
Grandi tascabili economici collection, with Italian translation by Luigi Squarzina and the French text facing.
For readers of classical theatre and scholars of Molière who want to compare the French original with the Italian version.
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".
