Congreve's literary apprenticeship was served under the tutelage of John Dryden, the leading playwright of the day. William Congreve only wrote five plays before retiring from writing to work in government. Love for Love and his other plays showed a knack for writing urbane, scintillating wit that some say rivaled Moliere's. Contents: The Old Batchelor; The Double-Dealer; Love for Love; and The Way of the World. See other titles by this author available from Kessinger Publishing. |
