Women and Irony in Moliere's Comedies of Marriage
Women in seventeenth century France enjoyed few rights, particularly regarding the choice of a husband. This book explores how Molière's comedies presented women using one of the few assets they had: their mastery of words, particularly the rhetoric of irony, to frustrate the plans of fathers, guardians, and other authority figures.
