{"product_id":"restoration-comedy-edward-burns-9780333397473","title":"Restoration Comedy: Crises of Desire and Identity","description":"What is Restoration comedy? What pleasure does it offer its audience, and what significance does it find in exploring that pleasure? Edward Burns here provides a new account of the origins and nature of Restoration comedy as a distinct genre. The book enlarges the usual focus with a wider range of writers than the conventional ossified canon taking in a revaluation of many rarely studied dramatists, a reconsideration of pastoral, and the instatement of women writers as major contributors to the culture of the age. It offers a substantial and original interpretation of one of the most intriguing of seventeenth-century literature forms.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Edward Burns\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0333397479\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780333397473\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Palgrave MacMillan\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/28\/1987\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 283\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.14lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.81d","brand":"Edward Burns","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":47421148889343,"sku":"9780333397473","price":159.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_585a96ac-8258-4016-85ea-d8f7f32bb18a.jpg?v=1761526635","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/restoration-comedy-edward-burns-9780333397473","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
