Sir George Etherege: A Study In Restoration Comedy 1660-1680 is a book written by Frances Smith McCamic. The book is a comprehensive study of the life and works of Sir George Etherege, a prominent playwright during the Restoration era in England. The book explores Etherege's contribution to the development of Restoration comedy, which was characterized by its wit, satire, and sexual themes. McCamic's study delves into Etherege's life and career, examining his early years, his education, and his social and political connections. The book also provides an in-depth analysis of Etherege's plays, including The Comical Revenge, She Would if She Could, and The Man of Mode. McCamic examines the themes, characters, and language of these plays, as well as their reception by audiences and critics. In addition to her analysis of Etherege's plays, McCamic also situates Etherege within the broader context of Restoration culture. She explores the social and political climate of the era, as well as the influence of other playwrights and literary figures on Etherege's work. Overall, Sir George Etherege: A Study In Restoration Comedy 1660-1680 is a valuable resource for scholars and students of Restoration literature and culture, as well as anyone interested in the history of English drama.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
