A giant of eighteenth century literature, William Congreve was an English playwright and poet of the Restoration period. His poetry demonstrates a learned understanding of the classics, raw satirical power and an ironic scrutiny of the affectations of his age. Congreve's famous plays are celebrated for their witty dialogue and their seminal influence on the comedy of manners style. The Delphi Poets Series offers readers the works of literature's finest poets, with superior formatting. This volume presents Congreve's complete works, with related illustrations and the usual Delphi bonus material. (Version 1)
