Book Overview
The Inconstant; The Double Dealer; The Foundling; The Spanish Fryar; The Double Gallant is a collection of five plays written by George Farquhar and published in 1777. The first play, The Inconstant, is a comedy about a young woman who disguises herself as a man to pursue her love interest. The Double Dealer is a satire about the hypocrisy and deceitfulness of the upper class. The Foundling is a sentimental comedy about a young man who discovers his true identity and falls in love. The Spanish Fryar is a tragicomedy about a young woman who is forced to choose between her love for a monk and her duty to her father. The Double Gallant is a farce about two men who try to win the affection of the same woman. Farquhar's plays are known for their wit, humor, and social commentary, and this collection showcases his range as a playwright.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
