Dorine

Dorine is a petulant domestic in Molière's "Tartuffe." She is the maid to Mariane, Orgon's daughter, coming from the lowest social class but the most truthful, clear-headed, and competent. She is sharp-tongued, quick-witted, worldly, skeptical, and self-confident. She is not even afraid to speak out against Tartuffe, even when Orgon tries to strike her.
