The Plays of Moliere

Excerpt from The Plays of Moliere, Vol. 1 <p>The history of the life, all too short, of this celebrated man1 does not need, in order to make it interesting, the frivolous details and gossiping stories which have hitherto dis figured it. We shall here relate, as to his personal life, only such facts as have been shown, up to the present time, to be true. As for his immortal works, we here reprint them; civilized nations have judged them, and we refrain from all comment on their value. <p>About the Publisher <p>Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
