Question

Description acceptable. In a play, a man endears himself to this character by saying that while his birth father gave him his “corporal” aspect, what he holds from this character, his so-called “second father,” is “of the will.” As this character lists off the foods in his diet, a woman in the disguise of a ninety-year-old man keeps shouting “Ignoramus!” At the end (15[1])of a play, a chorus chants “vivat, vivat, vivat” (-5[1])after this character switches outfits and begins to speak in (*) nonsense Latin. After this man feigns his own death, he gets “eulogized” as a wretch by his (10[1])wife Béline. (10[1])This character walks (10[1])back on his threat (-5[1])to send his daughter to a convent, (10[1])provided her lover Cléante becomes (-5[1])his (-5[1])doctor. (10[2]-5[2])For ten points, name this overly-health-conscious (10[2])title (10[1])character (10[4])whose creator, (10[1])Moliére, (10[1]-5[1])ironically died (-5[1])immediately after (0[1])playing. (10[2])■END■ (10[7]0[2])
