About this book
"The Learned Women" by Molière is a comedy written in verse and premiered in 1672. This satirical play targets academic pretension and intellectual affectation through the story of young lovers Henriette and Clitandre, who must navigate a formidable obstacle: Henriette's family. Her mother, aunt, and sister are obsessed with learning and culture of the most pretentious kind, insisting Henriette marry Trissotin, a mediocre poet who has captivated their literary salon. Against her father's wishes but powerless against his domineering wife, the couple must find a way to overcome this absurd impediment.
