Women and Irony in Molière's Comedies of Marriage is written by John D. Lyons and published by Oxford University Press. It's available with International Standard Book Number or ISBN identification 019888737X (ISBN 10) and 9780198887379 (ISBN 13).
Women in seventeenth century France enjoyed few rights, particularly regarding the choice of a husband. This book explores how Molière's comedies presented women using one of the few assets they had: their mastery of words, particularly the rhetoric of irony, to frustrate the plans of fathers, guardians, and other authority figures.
