When a woodcutter beats his wife, she takes revenge by convincing two servants that he's an eccentric doctor who refuses to admit his medical talents unless beaten with a stick. Forced into the role of physician, he must now treat a young woman who has mysteriously lost her speech. This farcical tale blends slapstick humor with sharp satire of medical charlatanism and human credulity. (This is an automatically generated summary.) UR - https://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/20498 ER -
