Beskrivelse af The Libertine
""The Libertine: A Tragedy"" is a play written by Thomas Shadwell and first performed in 1676. The play follows the story of Dorimant, a notorious libertine who spends his time seducing women and engaging in various other vices. Despite his immoral behavior, Dorimant is charming and witty, which makes him popular among his peers. However, his actions eventually catch up with him when he falls in love with a virtuous woman named Maria. As Dorimant tries to win her over, he realizes the error of his ways and is forced to confront the consequences of his past actions.The play is a commentary on the moral decay of Restoration England and the dangers of indulging in excess. Shadwell portrays Dorimant as a complex character who is both likable and despicable, highlighting the contradictions of his lifestyle. The play also touches on themes of love, redemption, and the power of societal expectations.Overall, ""The Libertine: A Tragedy"" is a thought-provoking and engaging play that offers a glimpse into the social and cultural climate of 17th-century England. It is a must-read for anyone interested in Restoration literature and the history of the period.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
