Melvyn Bragg and guests discuss one of the great figures in world literature. The French playwright 惭辞濒颈猫谤别 (1622-1673) began as an actor, aiming to be a tragedian but stronger in comedy, touring with a troupe for 13 years until Louis XIV summoned him to audition at the Louvre and gave him his break. It was in Paris and at Versailles that 惭辞濒颈猫谤别 wrote and performed his best known plays, among them Tartuffe, Le Misanthrope and Le Malade Imaginaire, and in time he was so celebrated that French became known as The Language of 惭辞濒颈猫谤别.
