*By reading this summary, you will learn how to seduce without causing harm.

*You will also discover : that language is an essential faculty to seduce; that seduction can become an addiction; that Dom Juan is not the seducer you imagine; that seduction is a form of theater; that wanting to seduce can sometimes make you lose those who love you the most.

*The character of Dom Juan is born under the pen of Tirso de Molina, in a play published in 1630 in Barcelona. Taking up a popular myth, the play stages the adventures of a young nobleman seducing and abusing the women he meets along the way. Thirty years later, Molière presents a different character from the one retained by popular culture. Indeed, the French playwright portrays a rebellious and ambiguous aristocrat, opposed to all the values of his time. Skillfully seductive, he does not, however, manage to keep his conquests. If Dom Juan has a brilliant rhetoric, his perpetual desire for conquest nevertheless prevents him from achieving his ends. How can one not fall into the traps of seduction?
