Love For Love

""Love for Love"" is a play by William Congreve, first performed in 1695. The plot revolves around Valentine, a young man who is in love with Angelica, a wealthy and independent woman. However, Angelica is more interested in money than love, and she refuses Valentine's proposal until he can prove that he is financially stable. Meanwhile, Valentine's father, Sir Sampson, is pressuring him to marry a woman named Prue, who is in love with Valentine's best friend, Ben. The play is a witty and satirical exploration of love, money, and social class in 17th century England. It features a cast of colorful characters, including a foppish dandy, a scheming servant, and a wise old nurse. ""Love for Love"" is considered one of Congreve's most successful plays, and it continues to be performed and studied today.This Is A New Release Of The Original 1693 Edition.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
