The Confederacy: A Comedy is a play written by John Vanbrugh, first performed in 1705. The play is set in London and follows the story of two sisters, Carolina and Lucretia, who are both in love with two different men. However, their father has arranged marriages for them with two other men, who they do not love. The sisters, along with their suitors, come up with a plan to trick their father and escape their arranged marriages. The plan involves pretending to be a group of people from the Confederacy, a fictional country, and pretending to be in dire need of money. The play is filled with mistaken identities, witty dialogue, and humorous situations. It is considered one of Vanbrugh's most successful plays and a classic example of Restoration comedy.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
