L’Enfant Prodigue, Ou L’ecole De La Jeunesse is a five-act comedy in verse by Voltaire. First performed in 1736, this play exemplifies Voltaire’s wit and social commentary. The story revolves around a prodigal son and the lessons he and others learn about youth, excess, and the importance of virtue. Set against the backdrop of 18th-century French society, the play offers a glimpse into the moral and social values of the time. Voltaire’s masterful use of language and comedic timing makes 'L’Enfant Prodigue' a significant work in French literature. This edition provides readers with an opportunity to experience Voltaire’s dramatic genius and explore the themes of morality, family, and societal expectations prevalent in his era. A classic example of French comedic theater, it remains relevant for its sharp observations on human nature and societal follies.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
