Tartuffe

. . .
Still, history is full of examples of individuals that take advantage of people through their faith.

Orgon reminds me of the husband in a Doll’s House. ought about it, and came to the conclusion that Dorine is more outspoken because she did not have the same status that Mariane did. Still, she not only runs the house, but she stands up to Orgon, the master of the house. I wonder how much of the original meaning we lost in the translation. Orgon has same of the same gullible qualities that the husband possessed. Nevertheless, in a Doll’s House the wife is trying to hide something from her husband, but in Tartuffe the wife is trying to prove something to her husband. Dorine probably never knew her dad and had to fight for everything she got. Something else that caught my attention is the rhyme scheme of the play (A, A; B, B). I can’t imagine how difficult it was to translate the play with the rhymes from French.

I can definitely see why the church would be upset with the play.
