Aphra Behn, “The Disappointment”
Behn (1640?–1689) was a prolific and highly successful playwright, author of The Widdow Ranter, included in this volume, and a contributor to the novel in its earliest English forms, most famously Oroonoko, or, the Royal Slave, which was adapted by Thomas Southerne into a play that was performed long into the eighteenth century. She was also well known for her poetry.
