1 ene 1698 año - Jeremy Collier published his Short View of the Immorality and Profaneness of the English Stage

Descripción:

- attacked playwrights like William Wycherley, John Dryden, William Congreve, John Vanbrugh, and Thomas D’Urfey

- accuses the playwrights of profanity, blasphemy, indecency, and undermining public morality through the sympathetic depiction of vice

- provided exhaustively close readings, which revolutionised his writing - previously (like William Prynne) it had just been a long nondescript diatribe, whereas now he could implicate the entirety of the Restoration stage
