[viii], 82, [2] pp. 8vo. First edition. First edition. [viii], 82, [2] pp. 8vo. First edition of the 20-year-old Fielding's first play and his second surviving publication. "Fielding's career as dramatist began auspiciously enough when, as an unknown author in his twentieth year, his first play, the comedy Love in Several Masques, was staged by Cibber at Drury Lanean extraordinary favour due probably to the influence of Lady Mary, to whom Fielding dedicated the published version" (ODNB). In the Preface Fielding acknowledges the difficulty of competing for audiences with Gay's Beggar's Opera and Vanburgh's The Provok'd Husband. Love in Several Masques would run for only 4 nights, and Fielding would shortly depart for Holland to study, his next theatrical works not appearing until 1730. Cross III, p. 290 Disbound. First three leaves detached. In a custom gray card folder.

However, Emilia's father, who disapproves of Horatio's social status, arranges for her to marry a rich but unscrupulous suitor named Bellamy.To win Emilia's hand, Horatio disguises himself as a wealthy nobleman and attends a masquerade ball, where he meets and falls in love with another woman, the charming and witty Harriet. As Horatio juggles his feelings for both women, his true identity is eventually revealed, leading to a series of dramatic events and unexpected twists.Fielding's novel is a satirical commentary on the social norms and conventions of 18th-century English society, particularly the rigid class distinctions and the emphasis on wealth and status.
