Abstract

This collection focuses on Moliere's theatre as works to be performed as well as read. The essays deal in their various ways with limits which are imposed and respected or violated and broken. The question of transgression both as a subject within Moliere's plays and as a dilemma confronting Moliere's critics and interpreters is addressed. The book aims to enlarge the scope of academic scholarship and include the thinking and insights of actors.

Abstract

‘Molière on Stage’ takes the reader onstage, backstage and into the audience of Molière’s plays, analyzing the performance of his works in both his own time and in ours. Written by a professional stage director with over fifty years’ experience directing and translating Molière, this text explores how the playwright strove to create a communal experience of shared laughter, and investigates four key topics relating to this achievement: Molière’s early experiences that lead to his later theater experiences; his central great plays of love and lust; his comedic genius and his passion for the stage; and the final words and performances of his life.

Abstract

Il existe un mythe de Molière édifié sur un monceau de légendes : mari jaloux et malheureux ; d'humeur rêveuse et mélancolique ; versificateur maladroit ; acteur doué pour le seul jeu comique ; malade consumé par ses mauvais poumons... Des générations de biographes ont colporté ces fables qui composent encore aujourd'hui son portrait. Comment retrouver le Molière que ses contemporains ont connu? Il ne subsiste de lui ni manuscrits ni lettres ni écrits intimes. Pour connaître au plus près la figure de l'homme, l'itinéraire de l'acteur, l'audace du directeur de théâtre, l'ingéniosité créatrice de l'auteur, il faut revenir aux témoignages méconnus, aux documents oubliés - tout ce qui restitue les travaux et les jours de l'homme, la vie d'une famille hors norme, les tribulations d'une troupe d'exception, la séduction de l'artiste-courtisan devenu le favori de Louis XIV, et qui éclairent les fulgurances du plus grand auteur comique occidental. Georges Forestier tente de se glisser dans l'intimité du créateur. Il en reconstitue la formation intellectuelle, révèle les secrets de fabrication de ses œuvres et fait découvrir la logique qui préside à l'enchaînement des pièces en perpétuel renouvellement. Au fil des spectacles, et d'un triomphe à l'autre, c'est le genre même de la comédie que Molière ne cesse de révolutionner. Voilà pourquoi cet alchimiste reste indéfiniment le contemporain de ses spectateurs et de ses lecteurs.--Gallimard.
