Argan is a man of gentry who lives haunted by his ailments. Therefore has an absolute dependence of the suspects remedies that your doctor Purgon prescibe including lots of bloodletting and purging (which are charged at a good price). Such is the determination of their alleged illnesses Argan plans to marry his daughter Diafoirus, a doctor, and so have constant care at home. However, she is in love with Cleanthes and his maid Toinette devise a plan to disabuse his father and make him see that unscrupulous doctors just want to get the money.
A classic theater and literature. It is a comic play, easy to read, accessible worldwide. Contains a fierce critique of hypocrisy, false appearances and relationships of convenience. But it is a bitter criticism, but fun, where in one scene is shaping each character perfectly. Argan
awakens compassion (for the suffering and so take advantage of it) while contempt (by the cheapness of using his daughter's marriage to their benefit).
Molière is particularly ruthless with doctors at the time, as a class that lives on a pedestal, where there are many stupid people who do not know what they do and who only seek prestige and enrichment. Purgon appears little in the work but has no waste: when he discovers that they are throwing their potions, gets angry and predicts the death of his patient as a conviction for not following his advice.
not a work for the elite, but for the people, without losing a technique of scene and a clean structure.
I'd like to see represented, sure to be a good time.
My rating: very good.
