Life
He lived all his life in misery and died an indigent.[1] None of his plays were successful, except for a very short time his first comedy, L'Embarras des richesses, played four times in Paris during his lifetime and later considered a comedy "well conducted and well untied" and "one of his best works".[2] Only L'École des bourgeois brought him posthumous fame. Presented for the first time at the Comédie-Française in 1728, the play was revived only sixteen years after his death and played intermittently between 1769 and 1848. In 1854, it inspired Émile Augier and Jules Sandeau a new comedy which was like a sequel.[3]
