Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book is a fine edition of the classic 1888 comedy by the renowned French playwrights, Labiche and Jolly. Like many of Labiche's plays, this farcical comedy of errors is set within a wealthy bourgeois family and employs the mechanism of mistaken identities to create its mirthful entanglements. At the center of the plot is the esteemed Francois Caboussat, a businessman turned local politician on the cusp of being elected president of the Agricultural Society of Arpajon. Caboussat is a genial but slightly pompous man with aspirations that far exceed his intellect. When the author of an obscure academic paper on Latin grammar, M. Poitimas, arrives unexpectedly at Caboussat's country home and mistakes him for a fellow scholar, the stage is set for a series of hilarious misunderstandings, tangled romances, and near-disasters. The author cleverly uses Poitimas' archaeological obsessions and Caboussat's obsession with his speeches to create a frenetic pace that keeps the audience in stitches. This book is a highly entertaining read that provides a unique glimpse into the literary landscape of 19th-century France. Labiche's genius for creating comical situations and his ability to satirize the social pretensions of his time are on full display in this sparkling comedy.

Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book presents a humorous and satirical take on the Victorian melodrama genre, specifically parodying the popular theme of 'murder will out.' The author cleverly employs elements of farce and burlesque to create a series of absurd situations where two men, after a night of revelry, find themselves implicated in a murder they have no recollection of committing. Through witty dialogue and exaggerated characters, the play explores themes of mistaken identity, the unreliability of memory, and the absurdity of societal conventions. The juxtaposition of the characters' supposed crime with their comical attempts to evade capture and maintain their disguises highlights the author's critique of the sensationalism and moral rigidity often found in Victorian society. Ultimately, this book offers a lighthearted and entertaining exploration of human foibles and the often-misguided pursuit of justice, leaving readers with a smile and a renewed appreciation for the power of humor to challenge societal norms.
