William Congreve

William Congreve (24 January 1670 – 19 January 1729) was an English playwright, satirist and poet. He spent most of his early career between London and Dublin, during which time he was an apprentice to John Dryden and was noted for his highly polished style of writing. Congreve is regarded by critics as the foremost dramatist of the Restoration era, being one of the most influential figures in shaping the course of English comedy during this period, and the popularity of his plays during the late 17th and 18th centuries was central to the development of the comedy of manners satirical genre. His best-known works include the plays The Way of the World (1700), which is considered a centerpiece of Restoration comedy literature, and The Mourning Bride (1697), which contains the popular proverb, "Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned".

Congreve wrote the majority of his works in London, and his plays and poems, which formed a major part of Restoration literature, were favorably viewed by the audience for their use of satire and comedy. He occasionally wrote under the pseudonym Cleophil, and first achieved significant fame in 1693 when he wrote some of the most popular English plays that shaped satirical comedy. Congreve wrote several notable works, including The Old Bachelor (1693), The Double Dealer (1693), and Love for Love (1695), all of which established him as one of the foremost writers in the comedy of manners genre. The plays of his time were dominated by female performers and actresses, and he formed a close friendship with Anne Bracegirdle who played a leading role in many of his works. However, his literary career only lasted seven years and he wrote a total of five plays, from 1693 to 1700. Congreve may have been eventually forced off the stage due to growing concerns about the public perception of morality regarding his theatrical comedies.

After leaving the theatre stage, he remained active in political circles with the Whigs party during the early 18th century. Although he lived until 1729, he did not produce any plays after 1700, and when he died in London, he was honored with burial at the Poets' Corner in Westminster Abbey. Congreve remains a popular and polarising figure in English literature, and his works continue to be studied in literary circles. He is often quoted for the sharp wit in his plays, which includes, "O fie, miss, you must not kiss and tell", and "Say what you will, ’tis better to be left than never to have been loved."
