DJ is price-clipped. ; 280 pages; Professor Dover's book is designed for those who are interested in the history of comedy as an art form but who are not necessarily familiar with the Greek language. The eleven surviving plays of Aristophanes are treated as representative of a genre. Old Attic Comedy, which was artistically and intellectually homogeneous and gave expression to the spirit of Athenian society in the late fifth and early fourth centuries B. C. Aristophanes is regarded primarily not as a reformer or propagandist but as a dramatist who sought, in competition with his rivals, to win the esteem both of the general public and of the cultivated and critical minority. He succeeded in this effort by making people laugh, and the book pays more attention than has generally been paid to the technical means, whether of language or of situation, on which Aristophanes' humor depends. Particular emphasis is laid on his indifference-positively assisted by the physical limitations of the Greek theatre and the conditions of the Athenian dramatic festivals-to the maintenance of continuous "dramatic illusion" or to the provision of a dramatic event with the antecedents and consequences which might logically be expected. More importance is attached to Aristophanes' adoption of popular attitudes and beliefs, to his creation of uninhibited characters with which the spectators could identify themselves, and to his acceptance of the comic poet's traditional role as a mordant but jocular critic of morals, than to any identifiable and consistent elements in his political standpoint.

Sm. 4to., First Edition, some mild age-staining and spotting throughout; modern grey boards, paper label lettered in black on upper board, one or two upper margins closely shaved else a crisp, firm copy. Dryden's second-to-last play, and according to MacDonald partially completed by Southerne. Its first performance should have been early in April 1692, but on the 9th it was prohibited; it was acted out on or before 16 April at the Theatre Royal. In his Dedication Dryden attributes the lifting of the ban to Rochester (the dedicatee), who had represented the drama to the Queen as 'wholly innocent of those Crimes which were laid unjustly to its Charge'. The Life of Cleomenes is supplied by Creech (from Plutarch; see MacDonald 131). In this copy, as often, the Prologue and Epilogue appear before the 'Life'. CBEL II, p.267; MacDonald, 92.

This Restoration comedy was first acted late in 1672, by the King's Company at their theatre at Lincoln's Inn Fields, but was not a success with its audience. Apart from the question of the play's quality - many critics have regarded it as a rush job, written mainly in prose with some blank verse - Dryden was suspected of anti-Catholic satire, especially in his choice of a subtitle. This was a sensitive issue at the time, given strong Catholic sympathies among some elements of the royal court - primarily the Duke of York, the future King James II. The cast of the original production included Michael Mohun as the Duke of Mantua, Edward Kynaston as Prince Frederick, Charles Hart as Aurelian, William Cartwright as Mario, and Nicholas Burt as Camillo. The role of Hyppolita, the nun, was taken by Mary Knep; Rebecca Marshall played Lucretia. Dryden drew plot material from a play by Pedro Calderon de la Barca, titled 'Con quien vengo vengo'. The Assignation was first published in 1673 by Henry Herringman; then republished in 1678 and 1692. Dryden dedicated the play to Sir Charles Sedley" - From Wiki. Wing D2243. **PRICE JUST REDUCED!

"The preface is Dryden's first important critical essay on comic themes and gives to this play, which both Pepys and Evelyn denounced as 'smutty' and 'profane', an importance it would not otherwise have." The play iself is based on : Molières "Le dépit amoureux" and Corneilles "Le feint astrologue", which in turn was taken from "El astrologo fingido" by Calderon.
