En savoir plus sur le livre

The biography details William Congreve's journey from his early life in Ireland to becoming a celebrated playwright in London. Initially studying law, his passion for literature led him to write his first play, "The Old Bachelor," which achieved great success. Despite a brief career producing only five plays, he also ventured into opera librettos, translations of classical works, and poetry. His political involvement included a role as Secretary of Jamaica. Tragically, a carriage accident in 1728 resulted in his untimely death in 1729, leading to his burial in Westminster Abbey.
