«Le médecin malgré lui» is Molière's comedy, published by Bordas Editions in paperback (127 pages, in French).
Comedy in three acts and in prose from French classical theatre. Sganarelle, a woodcutter who mistreats his wife Martine, ends up pretending to be a doctor: she, to get revenge, presents him as a great physician who only admits his trade if beaten. Amid misunderstandings, the false doctor must cure a young woman who has lost her speech.
This 1994 edition, part of the Classiques Bordas collection, offers the complete text in French; the play was originally published in 1666.
School edition aimed at secondary students studying French classical theatre in its 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".
