Answer Details
The major thematic preoccupation of Oliver Goldsmith's play "She Stoops to Conquer" is the problems of class and English mannerisms. The play is a satire that pokes fun at the mannerisms of the English upper class and highlights the problems of class distinction. The play portrays the upper-class characters as snobbish and pretentious, while the lower-class characters are portrayed as genuine and sincere. The play also explores the theme of mistaken identity, as the characters struggle to distinguish between the upper and lower classes. Overall, "She Stoops to Conquer" is a commentary on the social hierarchy of 18th century England and the challenges of navigating class distinctions in society.
