A 4 page essay that discusses Royall Tyler’s late eighteenth century play “The Contrast,” which reflects an era when the young United States was still struggling to establish its own cultural identity, apart from European influences. This purpose explains the principal theme of the play, which contrasts the virtues favored by the nascent American culture with shallow European sophistication. However, examination of “The Contrast” indicates that Tyler utilized his theme of contrasts on a number of levels, providing satirical commentary on eighteenth century gender stereotypes. No additional sources cited.
