Resumen
Wycherley’s second comedy, The Gentleman Dancing-Master, is loosely based upon the central plot of Pedro Calderón’s El maestro de danzar, which is adapted to produce a comedy of wit in line with the theatrical fashions of the 1670s. The purpose of this paper is to analyse Wycherley’s use of his source and to identify the characters, and introducing a cynical view of marriage.
