His first comedy, The Old Bachelor (1693), produced when he was only 23, was extremely successful and was followed by The Double Dealer (1693) and Love for Love (1695). In 1697 his only tragedy, The Mourning Bride, was produced. About this time Congreve replied to the attack on his plays made by Jeremy Collier , who in a famous essay attacked the English stage for its immorality and profaneness. Congreve reached his peak with his last play, The Way of the World (1700), which has come to be regarded as one of the great comedies in the English language. The leading female roles in Congreve's plays were written for Anne Bracegirdle See his works (ed. by F. W. Bateson, 1930); biographies by M. E. Novak (1971) and E. W. Fosse (1888, repr. 1973); D.

94. William Congreve Amendments Upon Mr. Collier's False And Imperfect Citations, Et William Congreve. from Amendments of Mr. Collier’s False and Imperfect Citations(1698). The playwright William Congreve (1670–1729) found it necessary to http://www.broadviewpress.com/drama/congreveamendments.htm

William Congreve from Amendments of Mr. Collier’s False and Imperfect Citations [The playwright William Congreve (1670–1729) found it necessary to defend himself against Jeremy Collier’s severe attack ( Short View of the Immorality and Profaneness of the English Stage ) on his work. He argues that Collier distorts his work by taking passages out of context and that Collier forgets that “the business of comedy is to delight as well as to instruct.”] I have been told by some that they should think me very idle if I threw away any time in taking notice even of so much of Mr. Collier’s late treatise of the Immorality, etc. of the English stage as related to myself, in respect of some plays written by me; for that his malicious and strained interpretations of my words were so gross and palpable that any indifferent and unprejudiced reader would immediately condemn him upon his own evidence and acquit me before I could make any defense             On the other hand, I have been taxed of laziness, and too much security, in neglecting thus long to do my self a necessary right, which might be effected with so very little pains; since very little more is requisite in my vindication than to represent truly and at length those passages which Mr. Collier has shown imperfectly and for the most part by halves. I would rather be thought idle than lazy; and so the last advice prevailed with me.

G lobusz P ublishing William Congreve William Congreve descended from a family in Staffordshire of so great antiquity, that it claims a place among the few that extend their hue beyond the Norman Conquest, and was the son of William Congreve, second son of Richard Congreve, of Congreve and Stratton. He visited, once at least, the residence of his ancestors; and, I believe, more places than one are still shown in groves and gardens, where he is related to have written his Old Bachelor. Congreve was baptised at Bardsey, February 10, 1670. His first dramatic labour was The Old Bachelor, of which he says, in his defence against Collier, "That comedy was written, as several know, some years before it was acted. When I wrote it I had little thoughts of the stage; but did it to amuse myself in a slow recovery from a fit of sickness. Afterwards, through my indiscretion it was seen, and in some little time more it was acted; and I, through the remainder of my indiscretion suffered myself to be drawn into the prosecution of a difficult and thankless study, and to be involved in a perpetual war with knaves and fools." Few plays have ever been so beneficial to the writer, for it procured him the patronage of Halifax, who immediately made him one of the commissioners for licensing coaches, and soon after gave him a place in the Pipe-office, and another in the Customs, of six hundred pounds a year. Congreve's conversation must surely have been at least equally pleasing with his writings.
