The Rover - Aphra Behn - Bog

The Rover, or The Banish'd Cavaliers is the most popular play by the Restoration playwright and spy Aphra Behn, first performed in 1677. The play follows the wild exploits of a group of English gentlemen in Naples at carnival time, although many of the tropes of the genre are subverted to an extent which sent shockwaves through the theatre world.
