Samuel Foote's Taste is a biting satire of the London theater scene in the 18th century. With his trademark wit and humor, Foote skewers the foibles and pretensions of actors, playwrights, and critics alike. But beneath the laughs and absurdity lies a deeper commentary on the power dynamics of the theater world and the role of art in society. Taste is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of English theater and literary satire.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.This work is in the "public domain in the United States of America, and possibly other nations.
