Quick Info
“On parle la langue de Molière” – “We speak the language of Molière,” is a famous saying in Ivory Coast. The French poet and playwright from the 17th century is a symbol of education and high culture in the West African country. Those who speak French perfectly are considered educated and privileged. But Molière himself spent his life opposing social hierarchies. His comedies exposed the hypocrisy of the rich bourgeoisie and the nobility. Many of his plays were censored or even banned because they held up a mirror to the powerful.
