This educational volume presents a guide to Pierre de Marivaux's *L'Île des esclaves*, one of the playwright's best-known theatrical works. Written for students and readers approaching the play in a French-language study context, it provides support for understanding the text's dramatic situation, characters, themes, and historical-literary background. Yen Mai Tran's contribution functions as a structured aid for classroom reading and literary analysis, helping readers situate Marivaux's comedy within eighteenth-century French theatre and examine its treatment of social roles, power, and theatrical reversal. The Bréal edition offers a concise framework for preparing discussions, essays, or exams, while keeping attention on the play's language, staging, and interpretive questions.
