Beschreibung
The three plays collected here mirror the era after King Charles II. In Etherege's "The Man of Mode", Dorimant meets his match. In Wycherley's "The Country Wife", Horner fakes impotence to fool husbands into giving him access to their wives. In Congreve's "Love for Love", the Valentine can win his beloved only if he loses his inheritance.

Über den Autor

George Etherege (1636-1689) invented the comedy of intrigue, and led the way for the masterpieces of Congreve and Sheridan.

William Wycherley (1640?-1716) is famous for his brilliant wit and savagely clever satire which give him a prominent place in the history of English Restoration drama.

William Congreve (1670-1729) was apprenticed under the tutelage of John Dryden. Congreve's wit and his characters' sexual freedom and experimentation were at odds with the thinking of certain moralists of the day. However, he has since been considered one of the most intellectually accomplished of English playwrights.

Gamini Salgado was born in Ceylon (now Sri Lanka), and came to England in 1947 to attend the University of Nottingham. He became an expert on Elizabethan and Jacobean literature, and was appointed to the Chair of English at Exeter University in 1977. He died in 1985.
