Description
""Patrician and Parvenu, or Confusion Worse Confounded"" is a comedic play in five acts, written by John Poole and first published in 1835. The play revolves around the story of two families - the aristocratic, but impoverished, Fitzherberts and the newly-rich, but socially-inept, Dabbletons. The two families are brought together when the Dabbletons purchase the Fitzherberts' ancestral home, and the ensuing confusion and misunderstandings that arise as the two families try to navigate their differences and social standing. The play is a commentary on the social hierarchy of Victorian England, and the tensions that arise between the old aristocracy and the newly wealthy middle class. With its witty dialogue, farcical situations, and satirical commentary, ""Patrician and Parvenu"" remains a classic example of Victorian comedy.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
