The author traces Dryden's theory of comedy through two main stages
of development, 1663-75 and 1675-1700. In the first stage, Dryden
conceives of ideal comedy as a heightened mixture of Jonsonian
humor and Fletcherian love and wit. In the second stage,
naturalness and satire become the key principles, and Shakespeare
becomes his primary model.
