Moliere (The Cabal of Saints)

Classical history, not devoid of mysteries and mysticism, develops in different historical epochs – from Louis the Sun to the present day. Rhythms, mores, manners, and fashion are changing. Powdered wigs and doublets will be replaced by tailcoats and top hats, jackets and jackets.
