Sinopsi

''Old Heads and Young Hearts'' is a comedic play in five acts, written by Dion Boucicault and first published in 1848. The story revolves around two young lovers, Harry and Rose, who are determined to marry despite the objections of their respective fathers, Sir William and Mr. Milford. The older men are both wealthy and influential, but they have very different personalities and worldviews. Sir William is a traditionalist who values social status and propriety, while Mr. Milford is a progressive thinker who believes in the power of love and individual choice.As Harry and Rose struggle to overcome the obstacles placed in their path by their fathers, they are aided by a cast of colorful characters, including a witty servant named Tim, a scheming lawyer named Sharpe, and a flamboyant Frenchman named Monsieur Beauvais. Along the way, they encounter a series of misunderstandings, mistaken identities, and hilarious mishaps that keep the audience laughing.Despite its comedic tone, ''Old Heads and Young Hearts'' also touches on serious themes such as class conflict, generational differences, and the nature of love. The play was a popular success in its time and has been revived numerous times since, cementing Boucicault?s reputation as one of the most talented playwrights of the Victorian era.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
