The designs of Carolean comedy

Abstract

Tempest, Marriage A-la-Mode, The Spanish Fryar, other plays are examined as consumer products offering a variety of potentially satisfying images of the world at a time when social and personal values were confused, precarious, and heterogeneous. Many of the comedies permit the viewer to enjoy forbidden, glamorous behavior without feeling guilty.
