Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The present work is set in the context of a long-term venture: The Restoration Comedy Project, launched by a research team at the University of Seville, Spain, in 1995. This book provides an objective, detailed view of all Restoration comedies, based on the descriptive and quantitative information obtained from an analysis of the plays, taking into account the different aspects of their production, and their dual nature as literary and performance texts. Hence the following elements are considered: title-page, performance details, editions, prefatory matter, dramatic structure, genre, characters, actors, plot summary, stage directions, music, and sources. All data obtained for each individual comedy are then catalogued and subsequently incorporated into a database that is regularly updated. This book covers the years 1660-70 and is the first in a series that looks at the comedies written and/or performed in England during the period 1660-1700.

Download or read book Coyness and Crime in Restoration Comedy written by Peggy Thompson and published by Lexington Books. This book was released on 2012 with total page 203 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Coyness and Crime examines the extraordinary focus on feminine coyness in forty English comedies by ten diverse playwrights of the late seventeenth-century. In contexts ranging from reaffirmations of church and king to emerging interests in liberty and novelty, these plays consistently reveal women caught in an ironic and nearly intractable convergence of objectification and culpability that allows them little innocent sexual agency; this is both the source and the legacy of coyness in Restoration comedy.

Download or read book The Ladies written by David Roberts and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 1989 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first in-depth study of a female audience that shows how and why women went to the theater in Restoration England. Robert challenges the assumption that a "ladies' faction" played an important part in encouraging the playhouses to present a more moral, less bawdy or "satirical" style of comedy, thus changing the course of English drama. He shows that there is no evidence of this faction, and that "sentimental" comedies really did cater to the interest of their female audience by incorporating the fashionable concern for women's rights. Drawing on many sources, including the life of Elizabeth Pepys, the book investigates just who these "ladies" were, what determined their theater-going, how often they went, what they liked and did in the theater, and the role of patronage at the court of three Restoration queens.
