Learned Women
Learned Women is a comedic play by Molière, written in 1672, that explores the conflict between love and intellectual pretension. The story follows Henriette and Clitandre, who wish to marry but face opposition from Henriette's mother, Philaminte, and her learned family, who favor the mediocre poet Trissotin. The play critiques the obsession with scholarly pursuits and the folly of those who prioritize status over genuine affection.
