I really enjoyed reading Tartuffe. When I first started to read the play, I was surprised to see that it was written in a rhyming pattern. The rhyme was one of the reasons why this play was so different than the previous plays we have read up to this point. Eventually, I got used to the rhymes and I actually enjoyed the style of writing. I also thought that this play was very entertaining and I thought the character of Madame Pernelle was pretty funny.
I was glad to read this play after reading Everyman and Doctor Faustus because I feel like the tone of those two plays were very somber and focused on teaching morality to their audiences. However, I thought Tartuffe was refreshing because it seemed as though entertainment was one of the goals of the play also.
