About This Item
Synopsis
Plays Pleasant (1898) comprises four comedies intended to amuse audiences but also to provoke them. Arms and the Man , set in the Balkan mountains, satirizes the romantic view of war and military heroism. Candida presents the complicated relationship between a vicar, his wife, and her young admirer. You Never Can Tell is a light, witty look at an aging suffragette and her family. The Man of Destiny features Napoleon Bonaparte at odds with English mores.
