Moliere
His real name; Moliere, Jean Baptiste Poquelin, is one of the greatest comedy writers of French literature, born in Paris on January 15, 1622. While revealing the ridiculous and unpleasant aspects of society in his works in the comedy genre; it both made people laugh and secretly aimed to educate the society. Moliere in the comedy "Illness Sick"; individuals who suffer from delusional illness, who abuse their profession; while discussing how it is exploited by stingy, dishonest doctors and pharmacists; He also referred to marriages based on interest.
Le Malade Imaginaire - The Sick of Disease
Ignorant and very wealthy Argan, who believes that she has a terminal illness, interprets the slightest symptoms in her body as the harbinger of a bad disease, while she feels the fear of being close to death at any moment to her bones. one who feels Fed by her weakness, her Doctor Monsieur Purgon and Pharmacist Monsieur Fleurant abused their profession and found the most powerful way to exploit Argan's money by making her believe that she is on the verge of a deadly disease. Using Latin words, they seemed very knowledgeable to Argan and told him that he had many diseases that needed to be cured, and even with the drugs they gave him, they disturbed his body and soul balance (Skepticism Scheme overcompensation- Opportunistic Mode; one of the overcompensation for the belief that people are bad is to abuse people's trust). Argan, who is worried about his deadly disease, has been troubled to make enough enemas by using the drugs given to heal the disease in his intestines. (This situation that Argan is in is called 'Illness Anxiety Disorder' in DSM-V. Argan, who interprets even normal physical symptoms as a harbinger of a bad illness, also has high levels of anxiety in health-related issues. The effect of the pessimism scheme here is the belief that the worst disease will come on its own, while the effect of the Medical-Irritability Scheme is if it is heat; a strong belief that she cannot cope with feared diseases and a sense of helplessness.)
Toinette is the kind-hearted maid of the house and a very intelligent woman. He is a sharp-tongued, humorous person who knows that Argan is not sick enough, that his second wife is with him for Argan's money, and that he is deceiving her with nice sweet words. Although his brave words cause him to be constantly insulted by Argan, he is looking for a way to save Argan from the situation he is in. He is also the biggest confidant of Argan's only daughter, Angelique. they want to marry. Just in this process, Angelique lost her heart to a good-hearted noble boy named Cleante, whom she met at the theater. Unfortunately, Argan's own wishes and interests prevent her from marrying the man she fell in love with. Argan wants her daughter to marry the person of her choice and expresses this with these words: “My goal is this: Since I am a sick, disabled man, I find a doctor groom for myself, provide scientific help against my disease as close relatives with physicians, and have the source of the drugs needed for my body at home. So, I want to be examined and have a prescription written as much as I want.” (The Opportunistic Mode- Righteousness scheme, which emerged with the effect of the Persistence Scheme, does not force her daughter into a marriage she does not want.)
Argan's wife, Beline, who is very dear to her; While he treats Argan as if he were a little child with his sweet, warm and compassionate words, his real desire is to put all of her wealth on himself; She is a dishonest, bargain, money hunter woman. But Argan, who is blindfolded, cannot see them. In order to achieve her goals, Beline kindly asks Argan to confine Angelique to the monastery as soon as possible. Emotional deprivation scheme - overcompensation)
Argan's chosen one as her groom Thomas Diafoirus, on the other hand, is a rather goofy guy who can't put two words together, managed to become a doctor as a result of his father's intense effort, and tries to persuade Angelique to marry with half-hearted words. Angelique has only one in mind. Cleante, whom he fell in love with. Angelique reveals all her heartache to her confidant, Toinette. Toinette realizes that she has to do something, but she can't afford to fight all this alone. Until Argan's brother Beralde enters the scene. Beralde; He is intelligent and well-intentioned. She cooperates with Toinette to both reunite her nephew with the man she fell in love with, and to save her brother from the clutches of the doctor and pharmacist, who economically exploited him by giving him a lot of medicine and making him believe that he was sick. Argan tells Angelique that she wants either to agree to marry Thomas or to confine her to the convent (the possibility of her daughter's failure to do what she wants activates the schema surrender of the Punishment Scheme within her). Beralde can't let her niece live a life she doesn't want and gives the following speech. “For God's sake, what do you expect from giving it to a doctor's son?... A groom that will work for himself, my brother who is useless for his daughter... But will you remain a doctor and pharmacist patient for a lifetime?... The least sick among the men I know you are the one. If I was as healthy as you, I wouldn't want anything else. If you want proof that you're like a radish, I'll give it to you. Despite all the treatments you have applied so far, you still have not managed to deteriorate your health, and you also maintain your strength.” (Beralde is the healthy adult voice of the game). Upon these words, Argan says what his doctor told him: "If I don't take care of you for three days, you will die." he said (Argan, who surrendered to the fear of sickness and completely trusts his doctor; Submission of Invulnerability Scheme- Skepticism Scheme, is experiencing his surrender). According to Beralde, such physicians do not understand diseases, but literature and deceiving people. Beralde, on the other hand, says the following: “If you leave the body to itself, it will free itself from its limp side over time. It is our own delusion, our haste, that makes everything worse; almost no one dies from the disease. Many become victims of drugs they have taken with their own hands.” Argan ke Indi finds his body so frail that he does not want Beralde to even speak of Moliere's theater (Moliere also refers to the people who waged war on him here) and responds with the words, "I will get sick because of you." (Delivery of Invulnerability Scheme). Thereupon, Beralde brought the issue to her only niece and advised her brother to marry the person she loved of her own free will, while her pharmacist, Monsieur Fleurant, brought the enema medicine to Argan. Beralde, on the other hand, did not use the drug so that she could see that she could make an enema without medication, after which Monsieur Fleurant told Argan's disobedience to Dr. He forwarded it to Monsieur Purgon. He came in a fury and got angry with Argan for his disobedience. Although Argan tried to explain that he was not the one who refused the drug, Monsieur Purgon severed all ties from Argan, including kinship ties. Monsieur Purgon, I was going to save you from this ailment, even though Argan accepted treatment to remedy the situation. Your stomach and intestines were going to be cleaned, crying out, saying that he stopped the treatment as a punishment for not using the drugs he gave, and it would come to the point where it wouldn't be treated in 3-4 days and goes. (words of Monsieur Purgon to punish Argan for his disobedience: The Scheme of Punishment is Schema surrender): Argan then said: "Lord God! I'm dead, you destroyed me, brother!.. I can't bear it anymore! I seem to feel that scientific medicine has already taken its revenge... My dear brother, haven't you heard that he is frightening me with what terrible diseases?” (Argan, who thinks he deserves to be punished for his mistake, has surrendered to the Punishment Scheme) On the other hand, Beralde says, “… Anyone who takes your word thinks that his life will be lengthened and shortened in the hands of the man as he wishes. Make up your mind! You will live to the maturity given to you.” (again he replied in a healthy adult voice). Upon these conversations, Maid Toinette and Beralde play a trick on Argan to show that not everything the dishonest doctors say is true. Toinette comes on stage as a traveling physician and talks to Argan. While Argan enumerates his symptoms, Toinette invents new disease names. Finally, one of his arms and one of his eyes He tells them that they should be cut and taken so that they do not get their food. This is the first time for Argan to be excessive. “It will cut off one of my arms, take out one eye, relax my other arm and my other eye! Let my other arm and my other eye be so comfortable! What a surgery that will leave me with one arm and one eye!” says. (This is Argan's first healthy adult voice) Thus, Argan learns not to do everything the fake doctors say. Beralde complains about her wife as much as she complains about the doctors and pharmacists who deceived her. Because he knows that his wife is deceiving him with nice words. Thereupon, Toinette found a way to show how much his wife loved him and planned a game involving Argan. According to the game, Argan will pretend to be dead, and Toinette will tell this to his wife, Beline. After Argan accepted the game, Beline's evil plans came to light and she said: "Thank you God! A load has been lifted from me. What a fool you are, Toinette, is your death such a pity?... What happened when he died? Was it useful in the world? He was a lousy jerk everyone shrugged off! Medicine or enema all day! Habire either wipes his nose, sneezes, coughs or spits; stupid, grumpy awkward, doesn't give anyone peace of mind..." Upon these words, Beline asks Toinette for help with the money she wants to spend on her. Argan realizes that his wife does not love him and comes to his senses. can push). While his daughter is torn apart by this news, Cleante comes to the stage. Cleante is saddened by the sadness of his beloved. While he tells that he came to persuade Argan, but that he is very sorry for the situation he faced, Argan gets up from his place, saying that if you become a doctor, I will give you my daughter. While Cleante said that he would do everything for Angelique he loves, Beralde said, "My brother, if you were a doctor yourself, you would have gathered both the patient and the doctor in the same body!" says. She encourages Argan by saying, "Most doctors don't know what you know." Then, with a ceremony among themselves, Arg
