Hardback. New. Beginning with H.M.S. Pinafore, Fischler demonstrates how W.S. Gilbert made it his business to cater to the sensibilities of the middle class through the structure he imposed on his plots, the approach he took to characterization, and the treatment he accorded erotic love, the quintessential theme of comedy.
