Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })The Misanthrope, or The Malcontent in Love (Le Misanthrope, ou l'Atrabilaire amoureux) is a 1666 comedy of manners by Molière, written in the typical Alexandrine verse note a line of twelve syllables, with a strong caesura (or pause) in the middle, roughly equivalent to the English iambic hexameter of the French classical drama. Alceste, the title character, looks down on the society, believing it hypocritical and disdaining the false compliments which are considered polite. Unfortunately, the very qualities which are horrifying to him are exemplified in Célimène, the woman he loves.Some Hilarity Ensues, but the play also seriously points out human flaws. | |

Hates Everyone Equally | |
The Misanthrope (Theatre) / int_31578d72 | comment |
Hates Everyone Equally: Alceste claims to feel this way, but in practice is simply honest with everyone equally. It's hard to say if he's actually any more malicious than the other characters, or if it just seems that way because he speaks his mind while they conceal it. | |

Downer Ending | |
The Misanthrope (Theatre) / int_4e3d253b | comment |
Downer Ending: Alceste and Célimène have broken it off, and Alceste is still set on becoming a hermit. It doesn't help that the play ends so abruptly (see No Ending, below). | |

Did Not Get the Girl: Alceste, by his own choice. She offers to marry him, but by that point he's convinced that her love is less than genuine. | |
