His acclaimed verse renderings of MolieÌre's plays -- 'among the finest translations of anyone by anyone that we possess' in the words of New Yorker writer Adam Gopnik -- are still enchanting audiences around the world. Library of America's deluxe two-volume edition brings together for the first time all ten of Wilbur's MolieÌre translations, a project Wilbur always envisioned. It features Wilbur's original introductions to the plays, a new foreword by Adam Gopnik on the miraculous convergence of Wilbur's 20th-century American and MolieÌre's 17th-century French sensibilities, and a fascinating interview with Wilbur about translating MolieÌre conducted in 2009 by Dana Gioia. This first volume collects MolieÌre's early farces The Bungler, Lover's Quarrels, and The Imaginary Cuckhold, or Sganarelle; the comedies The School for Husbands and The School for Wives, about the efforts of middle-aged men to control their young wives or fianceÌs, which so delighted theatergoers in Moliere's seventeenth-century France and continue to do so today; and Don Juan, MolieÌre's retelling of the story of the legendary seducer, performed only briefly in the playwright's lifetime before pious censure forced it to close."-- $c Provided by publisher. 505 0 $a Foreword / by Adam Gopnik -- The bungler -- Lovers' quarrels -- Sganarelle, or The imaginary cuckold -- The school for husbands -- The school for wives -- Don Juan -- An interview with the translator / by Dana Gioia. 600 10 $a MolieÌre, $d 1622-1673. 600 10 $a Wilbur, Richard, $d 1921-2017 $v Interviews. 600 17 $a MolieÌre, $d 1622-1673. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00034253 648 7 $a 1800-1899 $2 fast 650 0 $a Married people $v Drama. 650 0 $a French drama $y 17th century $x History and criticism. $x History and criticism. 650 7 $a Courtship. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00881873 650 7 $a French drama. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00934265 650 7 $a Husbands $x Conduct of life. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00964415 650 7 $a Man-woman relationships. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01007080 650 7 $a Manners and customs. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01007815 651 0 $a France $x Social life and customs $y 17th century $v Drama. 651 7 $a France. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204289 655 7 $a Drama. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01423879 655 7 $a Drama. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a TheÌaÌtre. $2 rvmgf $0 (CaQQLa)RVMGF-000000474 700 1 $a Wilbur, Richard, $d 1921-2017, $e interviewee. $e interviewee. 700 1 $a Gopnik, Adam, $e writer of foreword. 700 1 $a Gioia, Dana, $e interviewer. 700 12 $a MolieÌre, $d 1622-1673. $t EÌtourdi. $l English. 700 12 $a MolieÌre, $d 1622-1673. $t DeÌpit amoureux. $l English. 700 12 $a MolieÌre, $d 1622-1673. $t Sganarelle. $l English. 700 12 $a MolieÌre, $d 1622-1673. $t EÌcole des maris. $l English. 700 12 $a MolieÌre, $d 1622-1673. $t EÌcole des femmes. $l English. 700 12 $a MolieÌre, $d 1622-1673. $t Dom Juan. $l English. 830 0 $a Library of America special publication. 800 1 $a MolieÌre, $d 1622-1673. $t Plays. $k Selections. $l English $s (Wilbur) ; $v v. 1. 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231117012215.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=D8B03058EE0211ECABFB385646ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
