Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book is a scholarly edition of the Latin play Victoria penned by Abraham Fraunce, an English author and protege of the renowned Sir Philip Sidney during the Elizabethan period. Fraunce's comedy Victoria is a rare academic play of the sixteenth century, offering readers an engaging glimpse into the nature of studies and entertainments pursued at English universities during this time. The play's publication has been eagerly anticipated by academics in literary history and enthusiasts of Renaissance literature. Enriched with quotations and allusions to a variety of sources, such as classical mythology, Renaissance philosophy, liturgy, medieval proverbs, and even legal maxims, the play also provides scholars with a wealth of material for interdisciplinary research. The author, Professor G. C. Moore Smith, has meticulously transcribed the manuscript of Victoria, adding valuable annotations and an informative preface. His work not only illuminates the distinctive characteristics of Elizabethan academic drama but also sheds new light on the life and career of Abraham Fraunce. By shedding light on the complex literary and historical context surrounding the play, this book deepens our understanding of the intellectual and cultural landscape of the Elizabethan era.
