Email Us WILLIAM CONGREVE (1670-1729) W ILLIAM CONGREVE, the most celebrated of the Restoration comedy writers, was the son of an English officer living in Ireland, and was educated at Trinity, Dublin. His first play, The Old Bachelor , written at the age of twenty-three, was a great success. The Double Dealer , following almost immediately, brought forth the praise of Dryden , the autocrat of English letters. At the age of twenty-seven Congreve had gained a prestige scarcely less in importance than that of Dryden himself. Not only as a comic wit, but as a writer of noble tragedy was he esteemed. He promised his hopeful managers to write a play a year, but the promise was not kept. Love for Love appeared in 1695, followed by The Mourning Bride two years later. After one more comedy, The Way of the World , which seems to have been something of a failure on the boards, Congreve, at the age of thirty, gave up writing for the stage. He affected to despise the profession of dramatist.

Nach seiner Ausbildung am Trinitiy College in Dublin studierte er in London Jura, gab dieses Studium aber schon bald wieder auf, um eine literarische Laufbahn einzuschlagen. 1692 veröffentlichte er das Prosawerk "Incognita" ; es folgten einige Gedichte. Durchschlagenden Erfolg aber hatte Congreve erst mit seinen Theaterstücken: Die Aufführung der Komödie "The Old Bachelor" "Hagestolz" ) 1693 markiert den eigentlichen Beginn seiner literarischen Karriere. 1694 bzw. 1695 schuf er mit "The Double Dealer" "Der Arglistige" ) und "Love for Love" "Liebe für Liebe" ) ebenso zynische wie effektvoll-witzige, bisweilen frivole Sittenkomödien, die sich besonders durch geistreiche Dialogführung und geschliffene Sprache auszeichnen.

    Extractions: English playwright and poet. Born in Bardsey, England (near Leeds), Congreve was educated in the law at Trinity College in Dublin, Ireland; there he met Jonathan Swift , who would be his friend for the remainder of his life. Upon graduation, he became a disciple of John Dryden , William Congreve wrote some of the most popular English plays of the late 17th and very early 18th centuries. By the age of thirty, he had written several notable plays, including 1700's The Way of the World . Unfortunately, his career ended almost as soon as it began. After writing five plays from his first in 1693 until 1700, he produced no more as public tastes turned against the sort of high-brow sexual comedy of manners in which he specialized. He reportedly was particularly stung by a critique written by Jeremy Collier ( A Short View of the Immorality and Profaneness of the English Stage ), to the point that he wrote a long reply, "Amendments of Mr. Collier's False and Imperfect Citations". In any case, he withdrew from the theatre and lived the rest of his life on residuals from his early work. His output from 1700 was restricted to the occasional poem and some translation (notably Molière 's Monsieur de Pourceaugnac ). Congreve died in a London carriage accident in 1729, and was buried in the Poet's Corner of Westminster Abbey. Two of Congreve's turns of phrase have entered the English language. "Heaven has no rage like love to hatred turned, Nor hell a fury like a woman scorned" is from Act I, Scene I of his play
