Summary: "La Vie de M. de Molière" by Jean-Léonor Le Gallois de Grimarest is a biographical account written in the early 18th century. The work centers around the life of the illustrious French playwright Molière, born Jean-Baptiste Pocquelin, detailing his journey from humble beginnings as a tapissier's son to the heights of success in the world of theater. Grimarest's account not only highlights Molière’s theatrical genius but also aims to dispel the myths and misconceptions surrounding his life, presenting a more rounded view of the man behind the legendary comedies. The opening of the book sets the stage for a detailed exploration of Molière's life and career, beginning with his formative years in Paris as the son and grandson of upholsterers. It illustrates how Molière's artistic inclinations were nurtured by his grandfather, who took him to the theater, ultimately sparking a passion for performance that would steer him away from his family's trade. Despite initial pressures to follow in his family's footsteps, Molière pursued an education that prepared him for dramatic arts, forging connections with influential figures of his time. The author emphasizes Molière’s resilience and commitment to his craft, setting the foundation for the story of a man who would transform French comedy and leave an indelible mark on theater history.
