Description of the research topic:

What were the literary sources the most popular French author of the 17th century has worked of? We do know a lot of sources of his exceptionally rich and diversified oeuvre, beginning with the antiques, through Italian, to the Spanish patterns. The receptions are salient, because Moliere’s wish to not to hide the original sources. As most of his contemporary fellow authors did, Moliere looked at literature as a whole and free to use – as he did it in his pieces. Moreover, he sometimes picked up some elements – themes, personalities, situations – from his own works in order to reutilize them by putting them into new conditions. His personalities and situations are in a continuous action and tracking them promise us a huge philological challenge.
