Synopsis

This edition of a familiar and ever-delightful classic of the stage is intended to satisfy two current demands in the teach­ing of secondary English. It will make available for school use the most successful and the most important, historically, of Goldsmith's plays. It will thus afford to pupils and teachers a wider field of choice, to suit their various and varying tastes. It will also provide material for the more reasoned study of its period and its type. All who read Macaulay's "" Johnson"", or the ""Selections"" from Boswell, or Burke's ""Speech on Con­ciliation"", or Thackeray's ""English Humorists"", as well as those who wish a text illustrative of Johnson's period in the history of English literature or English drama, will here find their needs supplied

He was the first recipient of a National Endowment of the Arts Creative Writing Fellowship in Children's Theatre. He received an honorary doctorate from a mid-western university, and was introduced into the College of Fellows of the American Theatre. He was the first playwright to receive the Medallion of the Children's Theatre Foundation of America.
