They are my heroes in this literary work because they see right through the hypocrite‚ false Tartuffe and expose him. Thus Dorine says‚ “You see him as a saint. I’m far less awed; In fact‚ I see right through him. He’s a fraud.” (Tartuffe‚ 1.1.23). Unlike Madam Pernell and Orgon‚ the others were never quite fooled. “Good God! Do you
