Description
The Routledge Anthology of Restoration and Eighteenth-Century Drama brings together the work of key playwrights from 1660 to 1800, divided into three main sections:
- Restoring the Theatre: 1660-1700
- Managing Entertainment: 1700-1760
- Entertainment in an Age of Revolutions: 1760-1800
Each of the 20 plays featured is accompanied by an extraordinary wealth of print and online supplementary materials, including primary critical sources, commentaries, illustrations, and reviews of productions. Taking in the spectrum of this period's dramatic landscape-from Restoration tragedy and comedies of manners to ballad opera and gothic spectacle-The Routledge Anthology of Restoration and Eighteenth-Century Drama is an essential resource for students and teachers alike.
