«L'Île des esclaves» is the comedy by Pierre de Marivaux, published by Flammarion in paperback (160 pages, in French).
The play presents a theatrical experiment: after a shipwreck, survivors arrive on an island where masters and slaves must swap their roles, clothes and conditions. Far from being mere comic play, the piece shows how empathy transforms social inversion, denounces the abuses of servitude and turns the established order into material for critical reflection.
Edition from the Étonnants Classiques collection: complete text, corrected and annotated by Jacques Vial, with a dossier for the BAC and the «Maîtres et valets» pathway.
For French students preparing the BAC and for readers of classic French theatre.
Pierre Carlet de Chamblain de Marivaux, commonly referred to as Marivaux, was a French playwright and novelist.
