Audiobooks by Molière

‘100 Quotes by Molière’ is a compendium of thoughts and observations by one of the greatest minds of 17th-century France. Often witty, sometimes sharp, and occasionally touching, readers will find themselves getting a sneak peek inside Molière’s mind. A superb read, ‘100 Quotes by Molière’ is ideal for those with an interest in theatre and a wonderful book for dipping in and out of. - One of France’s greatest dramatists, Jean-Baptiste Poquelin (1622 – 1673), better known by his stage name, Molière, was born in Paris. While his father fully intended for Molière to become a furnisher for the French Royal family, much like himself, Molière initially decided he wanted to work as an actor. However, after trying to establish a theatre company in Paris, spending some time in prison, and touring with a theatre troupe, Molière eventually turned his attention to writing plays. His first, ‘L’Étourdi; ou, les contretemps,’ was staged in Lyons in 1655. However, it was three years later, when performing his ‘Le Docteur Lamoureux' that Molière found fame, falling under the wing of the king’s brother, Phillipe. Although little is known about his later life, his plays are staged worldwide to this day. Many have been adapted for film and television, including ‘Don Juan,’ starring Jacques Weber.

500 Quotations from the Great French Writers of the 17th Century

It’s no secret that writers often used their books, poems, and plays to impart observations, thoughts, and reflections. This was also the case for the literature of the 17th century which followed France’s pioneering status in politics and culture. ‘500 Quotations from the Great French Writers of the 17th Century’ offers a fascinating snapshot of that changing society, seen through the eyes of some of the best writers of the era. A superb book for dipping in and out of, this makes a great gift for anyone with an interest in French literature. - One of the most popular French poets of the 17th century, Jean de la Fontaine (1621 – 1695) was a pioneer of the fabulist form of literature. Imbuing animals with human characteristics, he paved the way for other fabulists to follow. Recognised as one of the three most important playwrights of the era, Pierre Corneille (1606 – 1684) is best remembered for his tragedies. He wrote 37 plays, including ‘El Cid.’ The next of the three French greats, Jean Racine (1639 – 1699) was also a tragedian known for his use of brutal yet eloquent speech. Completing the trio is Moliere (1622 – 1673). While his peers wrote tragedies, Moliere focused on comedies and his plays have been translated into almost every language on the planet. Jean de La Bruyère (1645 – 1696) was a philosopher and satirist whose works satirised many of his contemporaries.

Tartuffe (Unabridged)

This audiobook is narrated by a digital voice. Orgon, a wealthy man, becomes consumed by the piety of Tartuffe, a seemingly devout conman. Blinded by his religious fervor, Orgon ignores his family's warnings and showers Tartuffe with wealth and favors, even offering him his daughter's hand in marriage. Meanwhile, the rest of the household sees through Tartuffe's façade, recognizing him as a manipulative hypocrite out for personal gain. Elmire, Orgon's wife, hatches a clever plan to expose Tartuffe's true nature, allowing Orgon to finally see the truth and reclaim control of his life and family. Through sharp wit and cunning, the family foils Tartuffe's schemes, demonstrating the dangers of blind faith and the triumph of reason over deception.

El misantrop

Hi ha una manera de definir El misantrop: el món contra mi, i, si convé, jo contra el món. Si algú em porta un sonet que és més dolent que el pebre, en nom de què podria afalagar-lo? Si em jutgen perquè he dit allò que havia de dir, per què hauria de buscar algú que recomanés la meva innocència al tribunal? Que tinc raó és clar: que em jutgin, doncs, i demostrin si són al costat de la veritat o amb l'interès que sembla moure-ho tot en el món dels homes. O amb mi o contra mi, amb la raó o contra la raó.
