{"product_id":"2940148763963","title":"Tartuffe [French English Bilingual Edition] - Paragraph by Paragraph Translation","description":"Le Tartuffe ou l'Imposteur is one of the most famous theatrical comedies by Molière where his characteristic qualities are represented better than ever. The characters of Tartuffe, Valère, and Dorine are considered among the greatest classical theater roles. Molière's method of portraying life may not seem to be going too deep; but it is precisely the simplicity with which creations like Tartuffe embody the weakness or vice they represent that has given them their place as universally recognized types of human nature.\u003cbr\u003eAs a result of Molière's play, contemporary French and English both use the word \"tartuffe\" to designate a hypocrite who feigns virtue with fanfare, especially religious virtue, at which hypocritical gesture Molière jabs at throughout the whole play.\u003cbr\u003eSome notes (the shorter and vocabulary oriented ones) are inserted in the text, whereas longer and context providing notes are appended at the end of the play.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAbout the Bilingual Edition\u003cbr\u003eProject Bilingual (A division of Wolf Pup Books) is a continuing project making available great original French writers' texts along with their English translation. This edition, which offers after every original language paragraph its translation, makes both grammar and vocabulary checks as painless as possible. Idiomatic forms that could be overlooked can be easily detected.\u003cbr\u003eFurthermore, large paragraphs have been broken down to much smaller units so that the check is as effortless as possible. We do hope that by reading French writers that defined the language itself or whose work permeated the French culture, you will be able to get the maximum benefit from this language series. Although this edition is not a replacement for traditional methods of learning language, it is a very powerful tool to speed up the process once you have attained the intermediate level and beyond.\u003cbr\u003eWolf Pup Books\u003cbr\u003eA Bilingual Ebook Publishing Company","brand":"Wolf Pup Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47108837277936,"sku":"2940148763963","price":3.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940148763963_p0.jpg?v=1763708172","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940148763963","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
