Le Médecin malgré lui, Mélicerte, Pastorale comique, Le Sicilien, ou L'Amour peintre

This volume contains Le Médecin malgré lui, a rural farce (farce paysanne) that pokes fun at French medicine, followed by two plays for the court that were accompanied by music and dancing: the Pastorale comique and Le Sicilien, ou L’Amour peintre. These latter two plays, like Mélicerte, were autonomous scenes within a great court ballet, Le Ballet des Muses.
