  • John Dryden and the Late 17Th Century Dramatic Experience Lecture 16 (C) by Asher Ashkar Gohar 1 Credit Hr
    JOHN DRYDEN AND THE LATE 17TH CENTURY DRAMATIC EXPERIENCE LECTURE 16 (C) BY ASHER ASHKAR GOHAR 1 CREDIT HR. JOHN DRYDEN (1631 – 1700) HIS LIFE: John Dryden was an English poet, literary critic, translator, and playwright who was made England's first Poet Laureate in 1668. He is seen as dominating the literary life of Restoration England to such a point that the period came to be known in literary circles as the “Age of Dryden”. The son of a country gentleman, Dryden grew up in the country. When he was 11 years old the Civil War broke out. Both his father’s and mother’s families sided with Parliament against the king, but Dryden’s own sympathies in his youth are unknown. About 1644 Dryden was admitted to Westminster School, where he received a predominantly classical education under the celebrated Richard Busby. His easy and lifelong familiarity with classical literature begun at Westminster later resulted in idiomatic English translations. In 1650 he entered Trinity College, Cambridge, where he took his B.A. degree in 1654. What Dryden did between leaving the university in 1654 and the Restoration of Charles II in 1660 is not known with certainty. In 1659 his contribution to a memorial volume for Oliver Cromwell marked him as a poet worth watching. His “heroic stanzas” were mature, considered, sonorous, and sprinkled with those classical and scientific allusions that characterized his later verse. This kind of public poetry was always one of the things Dryden did best. On December 1, 1663, he married Elizabeth Howard, the youngest daughter of Thomas Howard, 1st earl of Berkshire.

  • Studies in the Work of Colley Cibber
    BULLETIN OF THE UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS HUMANISTIC STUDIES Vol. 1 October 1, 1912 No. 1 STUDIES IN THE WORK OF COLLEY CIBBER BY DE WITT C.:'CROISSANT, PH.D. A ssistant Professor of English Language in the University of Kansas LAWRENCE, OCTOBER. 1912 PUBLISHED BY THE UNIVERSITY CONTENTS I Notes on Cibber's Plays II Cibber and the Development of Sentimental Comedy Bibliography PREFACE The following studies are extracts from a longer paper on the life and work of Cibber. No extended investigation concerning the life or the literary activity of Cibber has recently appeared, and certain misconceptions concerning his personal character, as well as his importance in the development of English literature and the literary merit of his plays, have been becoming more and more firmly fixed in the minds of students. Cibber was neither so much of a fool nor so great a knave as is generally supposed. The estimate and the judgment of two of his contemporaries, Pope and Dennis, have been far too widely accepted. The only one of the above topics that this paper deals with, otherwise than incidentally, is his place in the development of a literary mode. While Cibber was the most prominent and influential of the innovators among the writers of comedy of his time, he was not the only one who indicated the change toward sentimental comedy in his work. This subject, too, needs fuller investigation. I hope, at some future time, to continue my studies in this field. This work was suggested as a subject for a doctor's thesis, by Professor John Matthews Manly, while I was a graduate student at the University of Chicago a number of years ago, and was con• tinued later under the direction of Professor Thomas Marc Par- rott at Princeton.

    This teaching material has been made at the University of Szeged and supported by the European Union. Project identity number: EFOP-3.4.3-16-2016-00014 Restoration & Eighteenth-Century English Literature (ANGBA3- Literature Survey Course) Restoration Comedy/Comedy of Manners (Restoration Theatre) Larisa Kocic-Zámbó SUMMARY: Though hardly comparable to the renown of the Renaissance theatre and the ubiquitous popularity of Shakespeare, the theatre of the Restoration and 18th-century has introduced a fair number of innovations and changes that will determine our perception and reception of stage plays well into to 20th century. This lesson is part of a three-part take on the era’s theatre, introducing three prominent genres: (a) Restoration comedy or comedy of manners (vs the 18th-century Sentimental Comedy), (b) heroic tragedy or drama, and (c) the musical theatre. Starting with a short historical overview focusing on the precursory events that gave historical significance to the Restoration theatre, namely, the banning of theatres during the Commonwealth and its consequences, special attention will be paid to the novel features of the resurging theatrical life following the restoration of monarchy. Topics will include: • Prohibitions against acting (and its Elizabethan roots) • Resurgence of theatre (two-company monopoly system) • Changes and innovations o Restauration purpose-built theatres o Female actresess • Restoration Comedy vs 18th-century Sentimental Comedy o E.g. Wycherley’s The Country Wife o Critique of comedy of manners: Collier

The :fop is the clown, the :rool, the buffoon, the coxcomb of the Restoration stage. He is the man in whom the essence of most or the satire in the play is found in one comical character. However, in earlier comedies ean be found characters showing evidence that they must have influenced his creation enough to be called literary prototypes. "Comedy," wrote Aristotle over two thousand years ago, "is an imitation of characters of a lower type. It consists in some defect or ugliness which is not painful or destruc­ tive."1 For many centuries the comic character was a soeial interpretation of this quotation.

    1 A DEDICATED FOLLOWER OF FASHION: THE AHISTORIC RAKE IN RESTORATION LITERATURE If I am right about nature’s options, history is like surrounding oneself with mirrors, like living in a bordello. —Joseph Brodsky, “Letter to Horace” Zoe Hope Gibbons May 1, 2009 Presented to the Department of English at Mount Holyoke College in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Bachelor of Arts with Honors. 2 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS Eugene Hill is my thesis adviser, but to praise him only in that capacity would be to do him injustice. In February of 2006, I entered his Milton class uncertain whether I should major in English; after a week or two, any other course seemed laughable. For the past three years, he has been an academic role model and, more importantly, a constant force for good. I am also indebted to my other two readers, Bill Quillian and Paula Debnar. Since my first week of college, Professor Quillian has made my life calmer and saner by his mere presence. Professor Debnar introduced me to Lucretius, polished my Latin grammar, and reassured me that one never finishes a thesis, but merely abandons it. During my time at Mount Holyoke, I have had the privilege of working with several other exceptional mentors. If not for Frank Brownlow’s Shakespeare Adapted and Interpreted seminar, I might never have discovered the farce and folly of Restoration drama. Joseph Ellis expanded my historical horizons and reminded me that a good academic is more than the sum of her papers. Finally, Stan Rachootin pointed me in the direction of Leslie Stephen, whose biography of Pope sparked my interest in the Restoration.
