L'Amour Medecin.

16660502Moliere 1622-1673; Lully Jean Baptiste 1632-1687. L'Amour Medecin. Paris: Chez Theodore Girard 1666. 1666 Priv. Dec 30 1665; Acheve Jan 15 1666. Originale edition. 12mo. 5 pl. 59 i.e. 95pp. Lacking frontispiece. Signatures: a6 A-D12 a1 frontispiece. Page 95 incorrectly numbered 59. Comedy-ballet without the music by Lully a contemporary date on title page in ink notes the first performance as Mar 22 1665. Bound by Trautz-Bauzonnet in red morocco gilt rules. A very handsome copy. Slipcase. Love-sick Lucinde feigns illness. Her father Sganarelle brings in one doctor after another but he rejects their cures. Finally Lucinde's beloved Clitandre masquerading as a doctor suggests that marriage is the cure for this kind of love-sickness but Sganarelle wants to keep Lucinde and her dowry for himself. The miserly father is tricked into signing a marriage contract between the two lovers which he thinks is a only a placebo to raise her spirits. Commissioned by the King for a royal entertainment at Versailles and first performed on September 15 1664 l'Amour Medecin is a comedy ballet with music by Lully in three acts. With ballet entries interspresed through the action entre-actes are described in the text. In his Preface MoliÄre cautions that one should not judge the play without seeing it. He also writes that he wrote the ballet in only five days and apologizes that it is only a sketch. He praises Lully's music. The comedy ballet form was in part created by Moliere himself along with the ballet teacher and theorist Pierre Beauchamps. For this form the ballet entries themselves had a dramatic structure in contrast to the early ballets du cour where the entries were metaphorical not dramatic. Moliere believed that ballets were comedies without words. In the case of this ballet comedy music and dance are the greatest doctors. The plot of the play in which a number of quack doctors attempt to cure a love-sick patient is probably based on Charles Sorel's novel Palais d'Angelie 1622. The play is now chiefly remembered for its devastating satire on physicians and has often been referred to as Les MÃ©decins. The enduring play was produced three times in 1665 at Versailles 27 times in Paris and from 1680 when the Comedie Francaise was established 274 times until 1900. References: Guibert A.J.

Arnold. The first collected edition of Moliere in English translated with the exception of two of the plays with a prefatory Life by John Ozell a prolific translator of the times who found his capacity for such work derided by Pope and Swift. Moliere was of considerable influence on the English stage via adaptations and derivatives by greater and lesser talents and even if the translations printed here were considered less than graceful by some they were widely read. At the end of his Dedication to the Earl of Dorset and Middlesex Ozell notes "that the Misanthrope and Malade Imaginaire . are translated by other Persons whose Names I forbear to mention since they have thought fit to conceal themselves."
