|  | Libertine Plays of the Restoration by Gillian Manning
While 17th-century drama in general is known for its portraits of rakish anti-heros, the rakes that appear in the plays collected here are even lewder and more licentious than the garden-variety. THE ROVER, by Behn, MARRAIGE-A-LA-MODE, by Dryden, and Southerne's THE WIVES' EXCUSE are among the works included. AUTHOR: Gillian Manning
