Cambridge, Eng.: Cambridge University Press, 2000. Le prince de Conti devient alors le protecteur de la troupe, à laquelle il accorde son nom. Le Misanthrope, presented in June 1666, pleased his admirers, but it lacked the popular appeal necessary to make it a success.
La troupe du duc d’Epernon accueille les Béjart, Madeleine, Joseph et Geneviève restés fidèles à Molière. Indeed, he is the most widely performed and read author in French literature. Still, during this period he wrote and presented a work that shows his mastery and genius. He is considered the greatest writer in the French language.
Le comte d’Aubijoux leur accorde, pour sa part, une importante gratification annuelle. Molière: A Theatrical Life. Ce genre nouveau séduit le roi que la danse fascine. He had met a young actress, Madeleine Béjart, with whom he was to be associated until her death in 1672. Molière joue, pour la première fois devant le roi Louis XIV au Louvre, une pièce de Corneille, Nicomède.

Molière
Jean-Baptiste Poquelin (Molière) was a man of the theater in his own right: playwright, actor, director and troupe leader.
Molière had been attracted to the theater since childhood. Cette protection ne dure guère, puisqu’après la mort d’Aubijoux, emporté par la syphilis à la fin de 1656, Conti qui se tourne vers la religion, signifie aux comédiens qu’il leur faut « quitter son nom ».
En octobre 1658, quand la troupe s’installe à Paris c’est sous le patronage de Monsieur, frère du roi.
In 1671 Les Fourberies de Scapin, a bright comedy similar to his early works, was presented. But it was in 1659 that he finally achieved success with The Affected Young Ladies. He also wrote Scapin the Schemer, The School for Wives, The Miser, The Bourgeois Gentleman, The Imaginary Invalid, The Misanthrope, Tartuffe,The Learned Ladies and Don Juan.
In most of his comedies, Molière depicts the failings of the bourgeoisie.
