This edition breaks with the usual practice by presenting the 1601 quarto version of Ben Jonson's play, set in Florence, instead of the revised 1616 version, set in London. Robert S. Miola presents a meticulously edited and modernised version of the play as originally acted by the Lord Chamberlain's Men (with Shakespeare in the cast) in 1598. Miola explores the relevance of the Italian setting, particularly the potent, variegated, and fascinating body of myth and legend that constituted Italy for English audiences in 1598. The editor also illuminates the dramatic context of the play, while paying detailed attention to the social, political, and religious contexts.

Wraps. Etat : Fine. Reprint. The Revels Plays. Edited by Robert S. Miola. Comprehensive printed footnotes throughout. Includes prefaces, detailed introduction, notes, appendices, plus index. From rear cover: "This edition breaks with usual practice by presenting the 1601 quarto version of Jonson's play, set in Florence, instead of the revised 1616 version, set in London. Robert S. Miola here presents a meticulously edited and modernized version of the play as originally acted by the Lord Chamberlain's Men (with Shakespeare in the cast) in 1598. Miola has collated all fifteen known copies of the quarto and consulted the revised folio version as well. Instead of simply endorsing the folio version as the superior play, the introduction seeks to understand the earlier version on its own terms. Miola explores the relevance of the Italian setting, particularly the potent, variegated, and fascinating body of myth and legend that constituted Italy for English audiences in 1598. He also illuminates the dramatic context of the play, outlining the rise of humours comedy in Jonson and contemporaries like Chapman, Marston and Shakespeare. Miola gives detailed attention to the social, political and religious contexts of the play as well showing how larger cultural struggles shape the characters and action. The textual history identifies the mysterious second printer of the quarto; the stage history reviews all significant performances of either version and corrects the received record. Miola also discusses Jonson's use of language, intertextualities and gender issues. Appendices provide longer notes and longer folio passages for comparison". Printed in the UK. With clear protective laminate affixed to cover. A very nice clean tight solid softcover copy. 282pp. SB-19. N° de réf. du vendeur 024071
