Title: Contradiction contradicted
Description: "Andrew Crowther's new study, Contradiction Contradicted, is an examination of Gilbert's dramatic works - not only of the famous Gilbert and Sullivan operas, but also Gilbert's librettos for other composers, his blank-verse plays, his prose dramas, his comedies, and his farces. This study compares previous critical assessments of Gilbert's works with the evidence of the works themselves, and Gilbert emerges as a more complex and interesting writer than has in the past usually been assumed."--BOOK JACKET.
