Molière's work allowed French farce to become "a satiric commentary on the society of his time and a penetrating exploration of eternal human foibles and obsessive attitudes of mind. In his hands their absurdity never ceases to amuse" Barham & Brandon p. 757. 6 vols bound in3 octavo 159 x 93 mm. Engraved frontispiece portrait by Vertue after the painting by Pignard in vol. I.

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."
