	Some Notes to English Restoration Studies
		Marsden's thesis is that adaptation of Shakespeare, common immediately after the Restoration, slowly died down and gave way to criticism as a form of commentary upon Shakespeare, a trend that reflected changing values that shifted away from moralistic ones with critiques of his metaphor and towards toleration of Shakespeare's ambiguity.
		In the Restoration, dialogue could be changed because Shakespeare's text was not sacred and his genius lie in plots or situations, in universal characters.
		Thus, as Kaufman puts it, “the English audience of 1683 could respond to this representation of what was widely felt to be implicit in the Whig opposition: the anarchy of civil war which had almost become a horrifying reality” (73).
