Women's Wit Onstage expands the view of wit in Restoration and eighteenth-century drama beyond repartee to include the interplay between verbal and physical forms in comedies, tragedies, and tragicomedies, placing wit in a theatrical and embodied context. Through wit, women characters, playwrights, and performers expressed a feminized perspective that questioned gender stereotypes and resisted patriarchal authority."."
