# George Dandin is played at Versailles as a public comedy of forced marriage’s misery

Date: 1668

## The fact

In July 1668 George Dandin was created, a public comedy of a misalliance and humiliation.

It is one event.

## Context

Court creation can also be flattery. Split Bourgeois as the court-ornament cost.

[Molière](/people/moliere)’s documented role is bounded by other offices and collaborators named in the sources below. Sharing a field with them is not a reason to drop a documented act, and it is not a reason to assign later consequences done in the name after death.

Named person as heading of the dated public instrument. Later editors, museums, printers, or offices share publication. Complex where later carriers date the row.

## Evidence and sources

Versailles and Britannica independently date the 1668 George Dandin among the Grand Divertissement.

Official or archival record: Château de Versailles (https://en.chateauversailles.fr/; Établissement public du château de Versailles).

## Significance

1668 Dandin is not 1668 Avare.

## What is established and what is not

What would change the picture: a contradictory original with a different date or name, or a measured series that can be argued, with lag and alternatives, as a consequence of this instrument rather than of later institutions.

The date is the date of this instrument, not a licence to back-date every later harm or benefit.

Established here: a sourced, dated public instrument with a named contribution by Molière.

What would change the picture: a contradictory original with a different date, signatory, or non-occurrence; a demonstrated forgery; or a measured series that can be argued, with lag and alternatives, as a consequence of this instrument rather than of other causes.

Contribution type is direct. They are not a public rating.

The attached driver is justice-[judicial-independence](/drivers/justice-judicial-independence-erosion)-erosion. Later museums, UNESCO listings, Loeb reprints, and 2024–2025 COP or NATO rows are not this event. Responsibility 0.55 and influence 0.55 bound the path; they are not a personality score. If a number is not in the two records named above, it is not supplied here. Readers should open both named URLs.
