Tartuffe, also known by its full title Tartuffe, or the Imposter, is a comic play that follows Tartuffe, Tartuffe, a pious fraud (and a vagrant prior to Orgon’s help), as he tries to manipulate the Orgon family into signing their worldly possessions over to him, including their house. He must be stripped of his power over Orgon if poetic justice is to prevail, and who better to do that than Orgon’s wife Elmire and his servant Dorine?
