Synopsis "Restoration Comedy, 1660-1670: A Catalogue (in English)"
The present work is set in the context of a long-term venture: The Restoration Comedy Project, launched by a research team at the University of Seville, Spain, in 1995. This book provides an objective, detailed view of all Restoration comedies, based on the descriptive and quantitative information obtained from an analysis of the plays, taking into account the different aspects of their production, and their dual nature as literary and performance texts. Hence the following elements are considered: title-page, performance details, editions, prefatory matter, dramatic structure, genre, characters, actors, plot summary, stage directions, music, and sources. All data obtained for each individual comedy are then catalogued and subsequently incorporated into a database that is regularly updated. This book covers the years 1660-70 and is the first in a series that looks at the comedies written and/or performed in England during the period 1660-1700.
