Translated version
Cléante
Type: A raisonneur. Traits: He is the voice of reason and moderation in the play, expressing Molière's own views. His long monologues explain the difference between true piety and hypocrisy. He urges to be guided by reason rather than passion and defends the ideals of the Enlightenment. Although not an active participant in the action, his role is the ideological foundation of the play.
Original version
Kleantas
Tipas: Rezonierius. Bruožai: Jis yra proto ir saiko balsas pjesėje, išsakantis paties Moljero pažiūras. Jo ilgi monologai aiškina skirtumą tarp tikro pamaldumo ir veidmainystės. Jis ragina vadovautis protu, o ne aistromis, ir gina Apšvietos idealus. Nors jis nėra aktyvus veiksmo dalyvis, jo vaidmuo yra idėjinis pjesės pamatas.
