Thomas Middleton

Thomas Middleton (1580-1627), one of the greatest of Jacobean dramatists, was born the son of a well-to-do London bricklayer. He went to Oxford but seems not to have gained a degree. Thereafter he pursued the precarious career of a professional writerin London. In a quarter of a century he wrote, either on his own or in collaboration, nearly fifty plays and other theatrical pieces. His greatest contemporary success was A Game at Chess, which was suppressed by the government.

Samenvatting

This volume contains Thomas Middletons four greatest plays, ''A Chaste Maid in Cheapside,'' ''Women Beware Women,'' ''The Changeling,'' and ''A Game at Chess.'' ''A Chaste Maid in Cheapside'' is the most complex and effective of the city comedies. ''Women Beware Women'' and ''The Changeling'' (with William Rowley) are two of the most powerful Jacobean tragedies aside from Shakespeare, studies in lust, power, violence, and self-delusive psychology. ''A Game at Chess'' was the single most popular play of the whole Shakespearean era, a satirical exposé of Jesuit plotting and Anglo-Spanish politics which played to packed houses at the Globe until King James and his ministers banned it. With the most up-to-date introduction available, this volume offers all the play texts newly edited with richly informative annotation.
