L'École des Maris is a three-act comedy in verse by Molière, first performed in 1661. The play explores themes of marriage, jealousy, and the folly of excessive control. Two brothers, Ariste and Sganarelle, have very different philosophies on how to raise their young wards, whom they intend to marry. Ariste believes in freedom and trust, while Sganarelle is convinced that strict discipline and confinement are the keys to a wife's fidelity. Sganarelle's attempts to control his ward, Isabelle, lead to humorous complications and ultimately reveal the absurdity of his rigid beliefs. Molière's wit and keen observations of human nature make L'École des Maris a timeless exploration of relationships and societal expectations. This edition offers readers the opportunity to experience Molière's comedic genius in its original French verse.
