The Wit of Moliere and Voltaire

Moli re and Voltaire were the world's famous baroque-comedy writers with a wit, charisma and sharpness never equaled before. Apparently, Moli re's "The Misanthrope" and Voltaire's "Candide, ou l'Optimisme," the extremely deep psychological studies, have enjoyed both the great success and great scandals. This monograph reflects on the timeless humor that the genius French authors applied to expose the political and romantic clich s of their time, and the struggles in a tone that is mordantly matter-of-fact.
