Arg. Three and two make five, and five make ten, and ten make twenty. "Item, on the 24th, a small, insinuative clyster, preparative and gentle, to soften, moisten, and refresh the bowels of Mr. Argan." What I like about Mr. Fleurant, my apothecary, is that his bills are always civil. "The bowels of Mr. Argan." All the same, Mr. Fleurant, it is not enough to be civil, you must also be reasonable, and not plunder sick people. Thirty sous for a clyster! I have already told you, with all due respect to you, that elsewhere you have only charged me twenty sous; and twenty sous, in the language of apothecaries, means only ten sous. Here they are, these ten sous. "Item, on the said day, a good detergent clyster, compounded of double catholicon rhubarb, honey of roses, and other ingredients, according to the prescription, to scour, work, and clear out the bowels of Mr. Argan, thirty sons." With your leave, ten sous. "Item, on the said day, in the evening, a julep, hepatic, soporiferous, and somniferous, intended to promote the sleep of Mr. Argan, thirty-five sous." I do not complain of that, for it made me sleep very well. Ten, fifteen, sixteen, and seventeen sous six deniers. "Item, on the 25th, a good purgative and corroborative mixture, composed of fresh cassia with Levantine senna and other ingredients, according to the prescription of Mr. Purgon, to expel Mr. Argans bile, four francs." You are joking, Mr. Fleurant; you must learn to be reasonable with patients; Mr. Purgon never ordered you to put four francs. Tut! put three francs, if you please. Twenty; thirty sous.1 "Item, on the said day, a dose, anodyne and astringent, to make Mr. Argan sleep, thirty sous." Ten sous, Mr. Fleurant. "Item, on the 26th, a carminative clyster to cure the flatulence of Mr. Argan, thirty sous.""Item, the clyster repeated in the evening, as above, thirty sous." Ten sous, Mr. Fleurant. "Item, on the 27th, a good mixture composed for the purpose of driving out the bad humours of Mr. Argan, three francs." Good; twenty and thirty sous; I am glad that you are reasonable. "Item, on the 28th, a dose of clarified and edulcorated whey, to soften, lenify, temper, and refresh the blood of Mr. Argan, twenty sous." Good; ten sous. "Item, a potion, cordial and preservative, composed of twelve grains of bezoar, syrup of citrons and pomegranates, and other ingredients, according to the prescription, five francs." Ah! Mr. Fleurant, gently, if you please; if you go on like that, no one will wish to be unwell. Be satisfied with four francs. Twenty, forty sous. Three and two are five, and five are ten, and ten are twenty. Sixty-three francs four sous six deniers...

Aquesta llibre reuneix en un volum dues de les millors comedies de la historia de la literatura universal, La comedia de lolla i El metge a garrotades, en les versions catalanes de Francesc Nel·lo. Ledicio ve complementada amb una introduccio al les vides i obres dels dos autors, Plaute i Moliere, i a la seva transcendencia mes enlla del seu temps. Una serie dinformacio complementaries, comentaris i propostes de treball, ajudaran els lectors a interpretar els textos en la seva justa mesura. La comedia de lolla (Aulularia) es segurament la mes coneguda de les comedies del dramaturg roma Plaute (250-184 a. C.), que va tenir molt exit perque escrivia comedies per a les classes mes baixes, en un llati molt col·loquial. La seva unica preocupacio era divertir i fer riure el seu public, sense cap mena dinquietud moral. Moliere (1622-1673) es, sens dubte, el comediograf europeu mes conegut i representat de tots els temps i ocupa un lloc destacat en la historia del teatre no sols gracies a la forma com manejava els versos, sino perque era capaç de fer riure. El metge a garrotades es la seva comedia mes elaborada. Estudi preliminar amb propostes de treball i de comentaris de text a cura d'Alfred Sargatal, catedratic de llengua catalana i literatura a lIES Ernest Lluch, de Barcelona, i autor de llibres com Iniciacio al conte literari, La invasio subtil de les aranyes, El Treball de Recerca en literatura i Introduccion al cuento literario.

O burgués fidalgo é unha xoia do teatro cómico.Partindo da farsa, cos seus procedementos sinxelos, caricaturais e esquemáticos, baseados na xestualidade, nos berros, nos paus e nos sorpresivos reviramentos da situacion, Moliere fai unha peza na que a sutileza da expresion e da palabracoa ironia e a variedade dos rexistros- xogan un papel fundamental na construcion da comedia

QUESTO LIBRO È A LAYOUT FISSOArpagone e un vecchio incredibilmente avaro, ossessionato dal timore di essere derubato. I suoi figli, Elisa e Cleante, si aiuteranno a vicenda nella speranza di veder coronati i loro sogni damore. Elisa, infatti, e innamorata di Valerio, che si e finto servitore di suo padre per introdursi in casa sua e starle vicino; Cleante e invece innamorato di Marianna, ma scoprira presto che il padre e a sua volta intenzionato a sposarla. Nel frattempo il servo di Cleante scopre dove Arpagone nasconde il suo tesoro e lo ruba. In casa di Arpagone scoppia un esilarante caos, e neppure un impaziente detective riuscira a riportare lordine di fronte a un folle e rabbioso Arpagone. Fra inevitabili, comici fraintendimenti, amori segreti e una figura del vecchio avaro degna della commedia plautina, Moliere si fa beffe dei difetti e degli eccessi della sua societa.Moliere (1622 - 1673) fu un commediografo e attore teatrale francese. Laccademia di Francia non lo accetto mai finche fu in vita; solo in seguito, nel 1774, gli dedico una statua.Tra le sue opere, Il medico volante (1645), Sganarello (1660), Gli importuni (1661).

La acción se desarrolla en París, en casa de Harpagón, un rico burgués viudo y padre de Cleantes y Elisa. Los dos hermanos están enamorados y temen que la avaricia de su padre ponga en peligro sus amores.Esta comedia es actualmente considerada como el arquetipo de la Comedia de Moliere que satiriza la sociedad burguesa de su epoca.
