1692pp (8), 56. 4to. 230 mm. Minor worm hole at blank fore edge margin. Later half leather binding; somewhat crudely restored. Still a very good example. Hardbound. This Restoration comedy was first acted late in 1672, by the King's Company at their theatre at Lincoln's Inn Fields, but was not a success with its audience. Apart from the question of the play's quality - many critics have regarded it as a rush job, written mainly in prose with some blank verse - Dryden was suspected of anti-Catholic satire, especially in his choice of a subtitle. This was a sensitive issue at the time, given strong Catholic sympathies among some elements of the royal court - primarily the Duke of York, the future King James II. The cast of the original production included Michael Mohun as the Duke of Mantua, Edward Kynaston as Prince Frederick, Charles Hart as Aurelian, William Cartwright as Mario, and Nicholas Burt as Camillo. The role of Hyppolita, the nun, was taken by Mary Knep; Rebecca Marshall played Lucretia. Dryden drew plot material from a play by Pedro Calderon de la Barca, titled 'Con quien vengo vengo'. The Assignation was first published in 1673 by Henry Herringman; then republished in 1678 and 1692. Dryden dedicated the play to Sir Charles Sedley" - From Wiki. Wing D2243. **PRICE JUST REDUCED!
