Carnival time in "The Rover" is a period when prohibitions are
temporarily removed, privileges and rank suspended, and women -
from convent girls to courtesans - take the initiative. Featuring
multiple plot lines, which deal with the adventures of a group of
love-struck Englishmen in Naples, Aphra Behn's play explores issues
of love, trickery and deception, forced marriage, male power,
fidelity, and the excesses of sexual passion. Hers is a
male-dominated society, but one with a clear-sighted portrayal of
the female predicament.The play is widely taught on A Level courses
as well as on undergraduate literature and women's writing courses.
This new edition contains a completely new introduction, and takes
into account important criticism from the past decade, as well as a
new understanding of the nature of theatre in Behn's time, and the
significance of her contribution to English drama.
