A 5 page essay. Moliere, the seventeenth century French playwright, and Oscar Wilde, the nineteenth century British satirist, while separated by centuries, held similar views regarding fundamental human nature. Each of these writers looked at societal dictums concerning virtue and decorum with a jaundiced eye and satirized the idea that these injunctions are even plausible when applied to real life. Both Moliere and Wilde saw clearly that personality is largely a social construct--something that is invented by the individual in order to navigate the shoals and eddies of the sea of human society. As The Misanthrope by Moliere and The Importance of being Earnest by Wilde demonstrate, both playwrights indicate that to try to live completely according to the forces of society stifles social interaction and it is the individual to "invents" himself according to the occasion who is able to achieve happiness. No additional sources cited.
