Klappentext zu „Nicholas Rowe and George Lillo: A Comparative Study “
In conventional modern criticism, Nicholas Rowe (1674-1718) has always been overlooked and underestimated. Today, he is remembered as the first editor of Shakespeare plays and not the successful and popular dramatist who dominated and shaped the theatrical tradition of his era. Opposite stands George Lillo (1691-1739) who occupies a prominent and immortal place in the history of drama. This study attempts to restore Rowe's reputation and proves the undisputable dramatic debt Lillo owes him and grants him a well-deserved and overdue place in the history of British theatre. To that end, the study falls into three parts, patriarchal, patriotic and Stoic tragedies. A close examination of the two dramatist's plays is conducted to prove Lillo's close emulation of Rowe's plays. The book is especially useful to academics and students interested in the history of British theatre, particularly, the Restoration and eighteenth-century period. It is also useful to anyone interested in drama and its moral role.
