The Comic Spirit in Restoration Drama: Studies in the Comedy of Etherege, Wycherley, Congreve, Vanbrugh and Farquhar is a book written by Henry Ten Eyck Perry. The book explores the comic spirit in Restoration drama, focusing on the works of five playwrights: George Etherege, William Wycherley, William Congreve, John Vanbrugh, and George Farquhar. Perry analyzes the comedic styles of each playwright and how they reflect the social and cultural context of the Restoration period in England. The book also examines the themes of love, marriage, sex, and gender that are prevalent in Restoration comedy. Perry's analysis is based on a thorough study of the plays and their historical context, making this book a valuable resource for scholars and students of Restoration drama and English literature.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
