Le Malade imaginaire by Molière is a classic French comedy.
The play centers on Argan, a wealthy hypochondriac obsessed with his health and doctors. He plans to marry his daughter Angélique to a
doctor to ensure medical care for himself, despite her love for another man. Through humorous situations, clever servants, and witty
dialogue, the play satirizes the medical profession, greed, and human folly. It explores themes of obsession, family, and the absurdity of
excessive fear of illness.
