Brenda Duran Honors English Mr. Carpenter Per. 2 Tartuffe In the write up Tartuffe by Moliere, the audience go off view hu manhoodsy foil characters. It seems as if e genuinely character had a foil, meaning opposite character. The two foils that closely stood out were Tartuffe and Cleante. These characters show completely different personalities and everything about them is actually the opposite. matchless is a hypocrite about religion and the other unrivalled is very prayerful. The more you learn about the characters, the more you realize how different they be. Cleante is both a wise man and a wise guy hes a perceptive, learned, and intellectual.Although he is very wise, is also very humble. Brother, I dont pretend to be a sage, Nor have I all the wisdom of the age. Theres just one insight I would dare to claim I know that confessedly and false are not the same (1. 5. 9-11). Cleante spends most of his time corpulent Orgon how wrong he is about everything. He wants his brot her-in-law to see the real Tartuffe, hardly Orgon is ignorant about this entire situation. . He yells at his brother-in-law, Good God, man Have you lost your common sense / or is this all close to joke at my expense? (1. 5. 7). Cleante is also a very pious man.Cleante remains the percentage of reason and a role model for Christian behavior throughout the bunco. Moreover, his Christian sentiments are sincere. Tartuffes reputation precedes him. His name is the title, and the characters of this play spend all their time talking about him. His fundamental escape of suavity is what makes Tartuffe a memorable character. He is an extremely hypocritical man. His failed conquering of Elmire is nothing short of pitiful. He actually tells her that hes no angel, as if that forget make her see him, a supposedly holy man, in a whole new light (3. . 29). Tartuffe pretends to be very pious save he is nothing but a phony. He says that committing adultery can be forgiven and is not that big of a deal. This of course is all lies. In conclusion, in Molieres story Tartuffe, we can see that these men are very different and are quite the foil characters. Cleante and Tartuffe is complete opposites. Cleante is the voice of reason and honestly and Tartuffe is just full of lies. Tartuffe is the most hypocritical man in this story. There is no honestly in him, when Cleante is full of it.
