Paper Summary:
This paper explores the theme of honesty in this play and how the characters convey Moliere's message that, while honesty is much appreciated everywhere, it is important to use tact while being honest or else we risk alienation from society.From the Paper:
"The play revolves around four important characters, Alceste, Celimene, Philinte and Eliante. It is through the characters of Alceste and Celimene that the author conveys his views on honesty. Philinte serves the important purpose of balancing honesty and deceit by adopting a middle path, which is both sensible and practical. Alceste is the protagonist of the play who is a man of rather unfriendly disposition and t5his unfriendliness emerges from his desire to be complete and even bluntly honest about everything."More papers on Moliere's "The Misanthrope":
