This Element is of the eighteenth-century performance history of The Fair Penitent demonstrates the interrelation of print and performance and models how readers can recover elements of performance through close attention to text.

Excerpt: ...The report is, that you are quitting England. Can it be? Honey. Yes, madam, I leave you to happiness; to one who loves you, and deserves your love; to one who has power to procure you afllueuce, and generosity to improve your enjoyment of it. Miss R. And are you sure, sir, that the gentleman you mean is what you describe him? Honey. I have the best assurances of it. As for me, weak and wavering as I have been, obliged by all, and E incapable of serving any, what happiness can I find but in solitude? what hope but in being forgotten? Miss R. A thousand! to live among friends that esteem you, whose happiness it will be to be permitted to oblige yon. Honey. No, madam; my resolution is fixed. Inferiority among strangers is easy; but among those that once were equals, insupportahle. Nay, to show you how far my resolution can go, I can now speak with calmness of my former follies. I will even confess that, among the number of my other presumptions, I had the insolence to think of loving you. Yes, madam, while I was pleading the passion of another, my heart was tortured with its own.. Miss It. You amaze me! Honey. But you'll forgive it, I know you will; since the confession should not have come from me even now, but to convince you of the sincerity of my intention of--never mentioning it more. Going. Miss R. Stay, sir, one moment. Ha! he here! Enter Lo rTY. Lrfiy. Is the coast clear? None but friends. I have followed you here with a trifling piece of intelligence: but it goes no further, things are not yet ripe for a discovery. I have spirits working at a certain hoard; your affair at the Treasury will be done in less than--a thousand years. Mum! Miss R. Sooner, sir, I should hope. Lofty. Why, yes, I believe it may, if it falls into proper...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lothario’s Corpse unearths a performance history, on and off the stage, of Restoration libertine drama in Britain’s eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries. While standard theater histories emphasize libertine drama’s gradual disappearance from the nation’s acting repertory following the dispersal of Stuart rule in 1688, Daniel Gustafson traces its persistent appeal for writers and performers wrestling with the powers of the emergent liberal subject and the tensions of that subject with sovereign absolutism. With its radical, absolutist characters and its scenarios of aristocratic license, Restoration libertine drama became a critical force with which to engage in debates about the liberty-loving British subject’s relation to key forms of liberal power and about the troubling allure of lawless sovereign power that lingers at the heart of the liberal imagination. Weaving together readings of a set of literary texts, theater anecdotes, political writings, and performances, Gustafson illustrates how the corpse of the Restoration stage libertine is revived in the period’s debates about liberty, sovereign desire, and the subject’s relation to modern forms of social control. Ultimately, Lothario’s Corpse suggests the “long-running” nature of Restoration theatrical culture, its revived and revised performances vital to what makes post-1688 Britain modern.
