Dramas staged between 1660 and 1700 are called Restoration Dramas. The dramatic literature of the period was dominated by comedies called Comedy of manners. Actually Restoration Comedy is used as a synonym for Comedy of Manners. The plot of the comedy, often concerned with scandal, was traditionally less important than its witty dialogues.
The comedy of manners was first developed in the new comedy of the Ancient Greek Playwright Menander. His style, elaborate plots, and stock characters were imitated by the Roman playwrights Plautus and Terence, whose comedies were widely known and copied during the Renaissance. The best-known comedies of manners, however, may well be those of the French playwright Moliere.
Oscar Wilde and William Congreve are the most celebrated authors of Comedy of Manners.Introduction to Macbeth - William Shakespeare

This document discusses how Christopher Marlowe's play "Dr. Faustus" can be considered a morality play. It contains elements common to morality plays, such as Good and Bad Angels providing guidance to Faustus, the portrayal of the Seven Deadly Sins, the presence of the devil Mephistophilis, and a vision of Hell. These allegorical elements convey the moral lesson of the soul's struggle between good and evil and the consequences of giving in to temptation. The use of such symbols and allegories effectively positions "Dr. Faustus" as a morality play that warns against straying from righteousness. presentation on tom jones

Tom Jones is presented as a rebellious young man by society. He leads his life according to his own perspective of goodness rather than societal conventions. Some key points about Tom's rebellious nature include that he constantly stole apples and ducks as a child, got in fights with his rival Blifil and Mr. Fitzpatrick, lived wildly without manners, and had numerous love affairs. However, Tom was truly loving and kind, and his rebelliousness may have stemmed more from being a motherless foundling and seeking maternal love than actual defiance against society.Shakespeare's Macbeth

This document discusses postmodernism and its relationship to popular culture. It defines postmodernism as a late 20th century movement that questions objective truth and universal narratives. Jean Lyotard is cited for viewing postmodernism as an era in which people reject overarching stories and ideologies in favor of local subcultures. Key aspects of postmodern culture emerged in the 1920s Dada movement and existentialist philosophy. Postmodernism influences many fields like art, film, literature through ideas like play, multiple meanings, and blurring genre boundaries. Examples of postmodern authors mentioned are J.R.R. Tolkien, Salman Rushdie, and C.S. Lewis.Deconstruction : A literary theory

油
Derrida introduced the theory of deconstruction in 1967, influenced by Heidegger's concept of "de-structuring" philosophical concepts to better understand them. Deconstruction holds that language is arbitrary and meanings are relational and constructed through context. It aims to uncover hidden assumptions and hierarchies in texts by analyzing contradictions and inconsistencies. Deconstruction was a reaction against structuralism and challenged philosophical traditions by expressing what had been marginalized or repressed. It looks for complexity rather than clear meaning or truth.More Related Content
