    Moliรจre is widely regarded as one of the greatest masters of comedy in Western literature. His works have been translated into every major living language, and he is so central to French culture that the French language is often called "the language of Moliรจre" . He took the traditional forms of comedy and invented a new style based on "a double vision of normal and abnormal seen in relation to each otherโ€”the comedy of the true opposed to the specious, the intelligent seen alongside the pedantic" .

    Moliรจre's early life was marked by determination and struggle:

    Born in Paris (baptised 15 January 1622) โ€“ Son of Jean Poquelin, one of the appointed furnishers of the royal household

    Educated at the Collรจge de Clermont โ€“ A prestigious Jesuit school where he mixed with nobility

    Renounced his father's position (1643) โ€“ At age 21, he decided to abandon his social class and pursue a career on the stage

    Founded the Illustre-Thรฉรขtre โ€“ With actress Madeleine Bรฉjart and nine others; the company went bankrupt in 1645 and Moliรจre was twice sent to prison for debts

    Toured the provinces (1645โ€“1658) โ€“ For 13 years, he refined his skills as actor, director, administrator, and playwright

    Returned to Paris (1658) โ€“ Performed before King Louis XIV and secured royal favour

    The stage name "Moliรจre" was adopted around 1644, possibly inspired by a small village of the same name. He likely changed his name to spare his father the shame of having an actor in the family . Despite the struggles, his talent and persistence won him the patronage of Philippe I, Duke of Orlรฉans, and later the title of Troupe du Roi (The King's Troupe) .

    Moliรจre's plays satirized human weaknesses with unmatched wit and insight:

    Tartuffe (1664) โ€“ A scathing attack on religious hypocrisy, banned by the Catholic Church

    Don Juan (1665) โ€“ Withdrawn and never restaged by Moliรจre

    The Misanthrope (1666) โ€“ A masterpiece of social satire

    The Miser (1668) โ€“ A classic comedy of avarice

    The Bourgeois Gentleman (1670) โ€“ Mocking social pretension

    Scapin (1671) โ€“ Brilliant farce

    The Imaginary Invalid (1673) โ€“ His final play, a comedy about hypochondria

    Moliรจre's death was as dramatic as his plays:

    He suffered from pulmonary tuberculosis โ€“ His health deteriorated in the late 1660s

    Collapsed during the fourth performance of The Imaginary Invalid โ€“ While playing the hypochondriac Argan

    Finished the performance โ€“ But collapsed again and died a few hours later, 17 February 1673

    Denied a formal church burial โ€“ Actors were still not allowed to be buried in sacred ground

    Interred in Saint Joseph's Cemetery โ€“ After intervention from the King
