The Works of Richard Brinsley Sheridan Author: Richard Brinsley Sheridan Publisher: Chatto and Windus Date: 1874 Editor: Francis Edward StainforthfictionRichard Brinsley Sheridan (1751–1816) was an Irish-born playwright, impresario, wit, and prominent Whig politician. He was a dazzling figure in late 18th-century London high society. The book, The Works of Richard Brinsley Sheridan, edited by Francis Stainforth, is an omnibus collection showcasing the full breadth of his career. The volume opens with a substantial biographical introduction (the "memoir"). It traces Sheridan's meteoric rise from an impoverished Irish theater family to the heights of Parliament and Westminster Abbey, balanced against his chaotic personal finances and battles with alcoholism. Rather than just printing his famous plays, this single-volume edition compiles his complete theatrical catalog (The Rivals, The School for Scandal, The Duenna, The Critic, Pizarro, etc.). Also included are his lesser-known verse, prologues written for the theater, classical translations, a selection of his most famous parliamentary orations, and fragments of plays and essays he never completed. The addition of a collection on “ANA,” noted on the book's flyleaf, refers to a 19th-century publishing term for a collection of anecdotes, memorable sayings, table-talk, and biographical trivia regarding a famous person. The "Sheridaniana" section in this book compiles the sharp-witted jokes, pranks, and clever remarks Sheridan made throughout his life.flagstaff hil, warrnambool, flagstaff hill maritime museum, maritime museum, shipwreck coast, great ocean road, book, pattison collection, warrnambool library, warrnambool mechanics’ institute, ralph eric pattison, corangamite regional library service, warrnambool city librarian, mechanics’ institute library, victorian library board, warrnambool books and records, warrnambool children’s library, the works of richard brinsley sheridan, richard brinsley sheridan, f stainforth, plays, drama
