«Les Précieuses ridicules» is the theatrical comedy by Molière, published by Hachette Education in paperback (112 pages, in French).
Molière sets in seventeenth-century Paris two young women who believe themselves refined ladies and two servants tasked with mocking them. The play satirizes affectation, false manners, and the obsession with appearing distinguished, and shows how appearances end up turning against those who cultivate them.
School edition (2011) from the Bibliocollège collection with complete annotated text, questionnaires, iconographic documents, and a dossier on préciosité; the work was originally published in 1659.
Intended for secondary school students studying classical French theatre and for readers who want to read Molière in his original language.
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".
