Fashionable Levities: A Comedy In Five Acts is a play written by Leonard Macnally and originally published in 1785. The play is set in London and follows the lives of a group of fashionable and wealthy people as they navigate love, marriage, and social status. The main character, Sir Harry Lovewell, is a wealthy and fashionable man who is in love with Lady Emily Gayville. However, Lady Emily is engaged to another man, Lord Norland, who is also her cousin. The play follows the various schemes and manipulations of the characters as they try to secure their desired outcomes in love and social status. Along the way, the play satirizes the frivolous and superficial nature of high society and the obsession with fashion and appearance. The play is written in a witty and humorous style and provides a glimpse into the social and cultural norms of the late 18th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
