The era of Molière (1622-1673) was the Golden Age of French theatre, under the reign of Louis XIV. Molière, whose real name was Jean-Baptiste Poquelin, became the undisputed master of comedy, humorously and subtly criticizing the flaws of the society of his time. His plays, such as TartuffeThe Misanthrope, and The Miser, are timeless classics that continue to be performed and appreciated.
