The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- He played a major role in shaping English comedy, and is often regarded by literary critics as one of the greatest playwrights of the Restoration period.
- The popularity of his plays in the late 17th and early 18th centuries was central to the development of satirical comedy of manners, and he became recognised as a seminal figure of Restoration literature.
- Although he wrote several commercially successful works, Congreve is best remembered today for his quotes, such as, "O fie, miss, you must not kiss and tell", and "Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned".
