  • Staged identities: it's just a question of character
  • Plays about plays: an "abstract chronicle"
  • Tragedy's tragic flaw: national character and feminine unruliness
  • Constituting parodies of identity: manners, humours, and intrigue on the comic stage
  • Sentimental comedy: or, the comedy of good breeding.
