This first-ever critical edition offers a fully annotated modernized text, together with an introduction analysing the processes of evolution and transition articulated by this comedy on several, interrelated levels: from the old hard comedy of the 1670s to the new humane comedy of the early 1690s, from a glamorous view of debauchery and excess to the more sober morals promoted by William and Mary, and from the Town settings of Carolean comedy to the suburbs.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWilliam Mountfort and His Time\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ci\u003eGreenwich Park \u003c\/i\u003eand Restoration Comedy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e \u003cp\u003e    3.
