Summary/Abstract: In this article, we have undertaken an in-depth study of the reading of classical texts, highlighting their current state. To this end, we examined the theoretical underpinnings of the teaching of these classical works in Morocco, seeking to understand how they are transmitted to students. We adopted a concrete approach, using the method of direct classroom observation to analyze the specific difficulties encountered when teaching a classical work to adolescent student-readers. In addition, we looked at the impact of Molière’s work on students’ ethical representations, seeking to determine how classical literature can influence their perception of the world and moral values. Finally, to encourage the development of students’ written production skills, we shared a practical experience using the pastiche of the exposition scene from Molière’s Le Bourgeois Gentilhomme. This comprehensive research aims to enrich our understanding of the importance of classical texts in contemporary education and proposes innovative pedagogical approaches to stimulate students’ interest and engagement with these iconic literary works.
