false <![CDATA[Harvard Classics, Vol. 18: Modern English Drama]]> 5190229 1 The modern English drama is represented here by two comedies of the eighteenth century, Goldsmith's She Stoops to Conquer and Sheridan's The School for Scandal, and by four tragedies, one of the seventeenth century, Dryden's All for Love, and three of the nineteenth, Shelley's The Cenci, Browning's A Blot in the 'Scutcheon and Byron's Manfred. Since literary fashions change from age to age, and since the authors of these plays were, even when contemporaries, men of markedly different tastes, it is natural that the six dramas should be more or less conspicuously dissimilar. Each is great because it follows an ideal; each is great in a different way because its ideal is not that of the others. 5257338 13 6 2007 Harvard Classics, Vol. 18: Modern English Drama total:1|5:1| 1 5 2 0 5 0 false false Tue Sep 22 14:40:02 -0700 2009 Tue Sep 22 14:40:02 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Sun Feb 22 22:05:01 -0800 2009 Thu Mar 19 11:01:19 -0700 2009 http://www.goodreads.com/book_link/follow/8?book_id=5190229
