The Influence of Moliere on Restoration Comedy by Dudley Howe Miles is a comprehensive analysis of the impact of French playwright Moliere on the development of English Restoration comedy. Miles examines the ways in which Moliere's works, particularly his use of satire and farce, influenced the writing and style of Restoration playwrights such as William Congreve, George Etherege, and John Vanbrugh. The book also explores the cultural and historical context of Restoration England, including the influence of French culture on English society and the political and social changes of the era. With detailed analysis of specific plays and comparisons between Moliere and his English contemporaries, Miles provides a thorough exploration of the lasting legacy of Moliere's work on the Restoration comedy genre.
