Written in 1664 Moliere Tartuffe captures the spirit of its time the beginning of The age of Reasoning. It is a satirical comedy aimed at Religious bigotry. It is so much more relevant in the post September 11 world where environment around us has been marred with hatredness and Religious fanaticism.
Tartuffe provides a two dimensional answer to protect people from deception and stop bigots in getting successful at their objectives. Precedence of Reason over Passion and bare the deception rather than harming the bigot.
Precedence of Reason over Passion
The first real conflict between Reason and Passion is depicted. Valere confronts Mariane with the rumors that she is marrying to Tartuffe as per her fathers wishes. The tempers flied high but none was ready to understand the others position. Moliere crafty intervention of Dorine as a mediator set the importance of finding a solution rather than letting emotions run over the situation.
Bare the decept ion rather than harming the bigot
Moliere gets it dead on spot on how to stop the bigots from getting successful at their objectives. Its the ideology not the individual bare the idea and the evil will evaporate itself. Rather than physically reprimanding Tartuffe, the family decided to bare his truth in front of Orgon which proved successful.
How relevant Tartuffe is in our lives today, instead of going thousands of miles as a killing machine we should work toward unearthing the deadly motives of terrorists and bare them. That is the only way we can stop the supply chain. Breeding hatredness will only breed Vengeance.
