The Broadview Anthology of Restoration and Early Eighteenth-Century Drama (Broadview Anthologies of English Literature)

A Broadview anthology covering English drama from 1660 to 1737, including Behn, Dryden, Congreve, Wycherley, and a host of lesser-known playwrights. The edition is hefty, annotated, and unapologetically scholarly. The cover is the familiar Broadview green, the paper is substantial, and the introductions are long enough to double as criticism. It is the kind of book you buy for a course and then keep because the footnotes are genuinely useful. Broadview prices its anthologies for student budgets, which is one reason the bindings rarely outlast the semester. Ideal reader: the reader who thinks Restoration comedy is dirtier and smarter than anything on television, or the student assigned to prove it.
