Les fausses confidences is a play by French playwright Marivaux, published in 1737. The play is a comedy of intrigue that explores the complexities of love and deception in 18th-century society. Dorante, a young man from a good family but without fortune, falls in love with Araminte, a rich and virtuous widow. To get closer to her, Dorante gets hired as Araminte's secretary and, with the help of his servant Dubois, he weaves a series of intrigues and false confidences to awaken the widow's love. The play is a subtle critique of social conventions and a reflection on the nature of love and sincerity.
Pierre Carlet de Chamblain de Marivaux, commonly referred to as Marivaux, was a French playwright and novelist.
