Book excerpt: Excerpt from Restoration Comedies: The Parsons Wedding, the London Cuckolds,& Sir Courtly Nice, or It Cannot Be, With an Introduction Notes Above all have I been careful entirely to eschew that excess of superfluous and frequently incorrect stage directions, peppered haphazard throughout every scene, which is so serious a blemish upon many modern recensions of our old dramatists. Such obtrusive and unscholarly methods confuse and annoy the general reader; they render the text useless for the student; something worse than useless for the theatrical producer; and, in fine, with their rank wealth of cinematographic detail, they are the very death of all fancy and imagination. o Mr. G. Thorn-Drury, K. C., whose intimate and encyclopaedic knowledge of this wide period of English literature is certainly unparalleled, I owe most grateful thanks for the kindliest encouragement and the unwearied solving of not a few obscure and intricate questions that rose during the course of my researches. My work, moreover, was immensely facilitated throughout by the generous loan of many a rare piece from the treasure-house of his seemingly inexhaustible library. I received many helpful suggestions from Mr. W. J. Lawrence, to whose classic works I am, in common with all other writers upon the history of the English Theatre, continually and deeply indebted.

Download or read book Restoration Comedies The Parsons Wedding The London Cuckolds and Sir Courtly Nice Or It Cannot Be written by Montague Summers and published by . This book was released on 2020-01-31 with total page 446 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1922, this volume contains three stage plays considered to be "Restoration comedies"-English comedies written and performed during the Restoration period from 1660 to 1710. Contents include: "Introduction", "The Parsons Wedding", "The London Cuckolds", "Sire Courtly Nice: Or, It Cannot Be", and "Notes". Augustus Montague Summers (1880 - 1948) was an English clergyman and author most famous for his studies on vampires, witches and werewolves-all of which he believed to be very much real. He also wrote the first English translation of the infamous 15th-century witch hunter's manual, the "Malleus Maleficarum", in 1928. Other notable works by this author include: "A Popular History of Witchcraft" (1937), "Witchcraft and Black Magic" (1946), and "The Physical Phenomena of Mysticism" (1947). Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. We are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with a specially-commissioned new biography of the author.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite his significant influence as a courtier, diplomat, playwright and theatre manager, Thomas Killigrew (1612-1683) remains a comparatively elusive and neglected figure. The original essays in this interdisciplinary volume shine new light on a singular, contradictory Englishman 400 years after his birth. They increase our knowledge and deepen our understanding not only of Killigrew himself, but of seventeenth-century dramaturgy, and its complex relationship to court culture and to evolving aesthetic tastes. The first book on Killigrew since 1930, this study re-examines the significant phases of his life and career: the little-known playwriting years of the 1630s; his long exile during the 1640s and 1650s, and its personal, political and literary repercussions; and the period following the Restoration, when, with Sir William Davenant, he enjoyed a monopoly of the London stage. These fresh accounts of Killigrew build on the recent resurgence of interest in royalists and the royalist exile, and underscore literary scholars' continued fascination with the Restoration stage. In the process, they question dominant assumptions about neatly demarcated seventeenth-century chronological, geographic and cultural boundaries. What emerges is a figure who confounds as often as he justifies traditional labels of dilettante, cavalier wit and swindler.
