Ο Αρχοντοχωριάτης by Molière
"Ο Αρχοντοχωριάτης" by Molière is a five-act comedy-ballet written in 1670. The work satirizes social climbing through the story of Monsieur Jourdain, a wealthy middle-aged bourgeois who desperately wants to be accepted as an aristocrat. He hires teachers in fencing, dance, music, and philosophy, constantly making a fool of himself while pursuing his grandiose dreams. When his daughter falls in love with a middle-class man, Jourdain refuses the match, hoping instead for
nobility. A clever disguise scheme ultimately teaches him the consequences of his megalomania. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
