Help with Questions to Tartuffe: Give concrete examples of some of the contradictions
Give concrete examples of some of the contradictions in the play between traditional religious values and the usual 17th century bourgeois existence (e.g., pride vs. humility, money vs. poverty, humanity vs. “heaven”). Can you find any evidence in the play that Moliere endorses traditional religious values? If not, what sort of religion does he advocate in the play?
