Book Description

Excerpt from The Plays of Moliere, Vol. 1: In French With an English Translation and Notes; 1655-1656 Mollere in English blank verse is impossible; in rhymed couplets he reads more like the 'book' of a pantomime I experimented a little in both before I came to the conclusion that the only possible way, so far as I was concerned, to render his verse comedies into English, was to render them in prose.
