Description
The NHB Drama Classics series presents the world's greatest plays in affordable, highly readable editions for students, actors and theatregoers.
The hallmarks of the series are accessible introductions (focussing on the play's theatrical and historical background, together with an author biography, key dates and suggestions for further reading) and the complete text, uncluttered with footnotes.
The translations, by leading experts in the field, are accurate and above all actable.
The editions of English-language plays include a glossary of unusual words and phrases to aid understanding. The Rover is a classic Restoration comedy by the first English woman playwright. Arriving in Naples at carnival time, a group of exiled cavaliers determine to enjoy themselves.
They are repeatedly tempted and tricked by various prostitutes and their pimps, until their leader, the Rover, is finally forced to give up his wild behaviour when he falls in love with a single-minded, wealthy virgin. Edited and introduced by Simon Trussler.
