Love is the Best Doctor

Love is the Best Doctor

Molière

Written by Molière in 1665, 'Love is the Best Doctor' is a comedic play that follows Sganarelle, who calls upon four fashionable doctors to cure his daughter. Instead of providing help, the doctors engage in arguments, leading Sganarelle to the streets where he encounters a quack and his daughter's secret lover. This work is notable for being hastily composed in just five days at the request of King Louis XIV, showcasing Molière's sharp wit and critique of the medical profession.
