Subligny criticized one of this author's plays for the inexplicable knowledge of a secret passage by a supposedly foreign character. In that play, this author returned to writing "suivante" roles such as Cephise and Cleone. In another of this man's works, the porter Petit Jean is forced to stand guard rather than sleep, and later is aided by Le Souffler, a prompter, in acting as prosecutor in the trial of the dog Citron. That work centers on Dandin, a mad judge. In his best-known work, the title character reveals her illicit love to her nurse Oenone, while the target of that love is tutored by the lecherous Theramene. The title character of that play kills herself after her husband Thesee discovers her love for Hippolyte. For 10 points, name this French playwright of Andromache and Phedre.
