Esta antología reúne cuatro obras maestras de la comedia inglesa de los siglos XVII y XVIII. Incluye 'Volpone' de Ben Jonson, una sátira mordaz sobre la codicia humana; 'The Way of the World' de William Congreve, una comedia de costumbres elegante y sofisticada; y dos comedias ruidosas del siglo XVIII de Oliver Goldsmith y Richard Brinsley Sheridan: 'She Stoops to Conquer' y 'The School for Scandal'. Estas obras ofrecen una visión fascinante de la sociedad y el ingenio de la época.

Ben Jonson was an English actor, poet and playwright. Jonson's artistry exerted a lasting influence on English poetry and stage comedy. He popularised the comedy of humours; he is best known for the satirical plays Every Man in His Humour (1598), Volpone, or The Fox, The Alchemist (1610), and Bartholomew Fair (1614), and for his lyric and epigrammatic poetry. He is regarded as "the second most important English dramatist, after William Shakespeare, during the reign of James I."
