William Wycherley

    1. január 1640 – 1. január 1716

    William Wycherley bol anglický dramatik obdobia Restaurácie, známy svojimi hrami plnými břitkého humoru a kritiky spoločnosti. Jeho diela ostro zachytávajú dobový život, jeho postavy sú často cynické a motivované túžbou po bohatstve a potešení. Wycherleyho štýl je charakteristický rýchlymi dialógmi a nečakanými zápletkami, ktoré odrážajú jeho pohŕdanie pokrytectvom a spoločenskými konvenciami. Jeho hry sú cenené pre svoju inteligenciu a odvážne zobrazenie ľudskej povahy.

      Set in the 17th century, the play centers on Harry Horner, a notorious rake who spreads a rumor about being a eunuch to pursue affairs without raising suspicion. Its bold exploration of sexuality and gender roles sparked controversy, featuring explicit scenes and women engaging in behaviors typically reserved for men, such as carousing and singing. The narrative weaves together multiple plot lines, revealing the complexities of desire and societal expectations during its time.
