http://faculty.goucher.edu/eng211/william_congreve.htm
William Congreve, The Way of the World Genre: comic drama. Form: prose with some inset lyrics. Characters: Note the"Dramatis Personae"'s careful description of characters in terms of their love and friendship relations, as well as their kinships. This play is founded upon the notion that love strives with and often overthrows the "natural" order of kin relationship, including that crucial artificial one that is formed by marriage. Note that all female characters who are not servants are styled "Mrs." as a term of respect. Only Mrs. Fainall is actually married.
The following list describes the characters by their type, since members of the same type often are either allies or opponents in the plot.
  • Rakes: Fainall (the antagonist); Mirabell (the co-protagonist [with Millamant]). Would-be Rakes: Witwoud and Petulant. Country Aristocrat: Sir Wilfull Witwoud. Lady Wishfort. Younger (marriagable or seducable) City Women: Millamant ("loved by thousands"); Marwood (the double agent torn between Fainall and Mirabell); Mrs. Fainall (torn between her mother's power [Wishfort], her past association with Mirabell, and her loveless marriage to Fainall). Servants: Foible (Mrs. Wishfort's maid, but ally of Mirabell); Peg (Mrs. Wishfort's underservant, subordinate to Foible); Mincing (Millamant's maid); Waitwell (Mirabell's servant and ally against Fainall and Wishfort, the man who plays "Sir Rowland," Mirabell's "uncle who hates him"); Betty (servant in the chocolate house).

WILLIAM CONGREVE This article was originally published in Encyclopedia Britannica, Eleventh Edition, Volume VI . Algernon Charles Swinburne. Cambridge: University Press, 1910. p. 938-9. Purchase Plays by William Congreve CONGREVE, WILLIAM The Old Bachelor , under the generous auspices of Dryden , then as ever a living and immortal witness to the falsehood of the vulgar charges which taxes the greater among poets with jealousy or envy, the natural badge and brand of the smallest that would claim a place among their kind. The dis-crowned laureate had never, he said, seen such a first play; and indeed the graceless grace of the dialogue was as yet only to by matched by the last and best work of Etherege , standing as till then it had done alone among the barefaced brutalities of Wycherley and Shadwell. The types of Congreve's first work were the common conventional properties of stage tradition; but the fine and clear-cut style in which these types were reproduced was his own. The gift of one place and the reversion of another were the solid fruits of his splendid success. Next year a better play from the same hand met with a worse fortune on the stage, and with yet higher honour from the first living poet of his nation. The noble verses, as faultless in the expression as reckless in the extravagance of their applause, prefixed by Dryden to

William Congreve Born on January 24, 1670, William Congreve was educated at Trinity College, Dublin, and the Middle Temple where he studied law. His literary apprenticeship was served under the tutelage of John Dryden, the leading playwright of the day. Congreve's first play, The Old Bachelor (1693) was an enormous success when it was produced at the Theatre Royal, Drury Lane. Dryden wrote that he had never read so brilliant a first play. Congreve's next effort, however, was not so successful. The Double-Dealer (1693) revolves around a socialite who deceives everyone with the simple device of telling the plain truth. Although most modern critics consider The Double-Dealer an improvement over Congreve's first play, it was snubbed by critics and audiences alike. Congreve was irritated by what he perceived as the obtuseness of the public. Love for Love (1695) returned Congreve temporarily to the public favor, and his reputation improved still further with the production of his only tragedy, The Mourning Bride , in 1697. But Congreve's masterpiece was still to come.

After publishing a novel of intrigue, Incognita (1692), and translations of Juvenal and Persius (1693), he turned to writing for the stage. His first comedy, The Old Bachelor (1693), produced when he was only 23, was extremely successful and was followed by The Double Dealer (1693) and Love for Love (1695). In 1697 his only tragedy, The Mourning Bride, was produced. About this time Congreve replied to the attack on his plays made by Jeremy Collier , who in a famous essay attacked the English stage for its immorality and profaneness. Congreve reached his peak with his last play, The Way of the World (1700), which has come to be regarded as one of the great comedies in the English language. The leading female roles in Congreve's plays were written for Anne
