Synopsis

Anything For A Quiet Life is a play written by Thomas Middleton, a renowned English playwright from the Jacobean era. The play revolves around the story of a man named Sir Francis Acton, who is desperate to maintain a quiet and peaceful life. To achieve this, he is willing to go to any lengths, including compromising his principles and betraying his friends.The play is set in London during the early 17th century and explores the themes of power, corruption, and morality. It features a range of characters, including Acton's wife, Lady Acton, his friend, Sir John Frugal, and a group of corrupt courtiers who seek to manipulate Acton for their own gain.As the plot unfolds, Acton becomes increasingly embroiled in a web of deceit and intrigue, as he struggles to balance his desire for a quiet life with his moral obligations. The play culminates in a dramatic showdown, as Acton is forced to confront the consequences of his actions and make a decision that will ultimately determine his fate.Anything For A Quiet Life is a thought-provoking and engaging play that offers a fascinating glimpse into the social and political landscape of early 17th century England. It is widely regarded as one of Middleton's most accomplished works and remains a popular choice for theatre productions and academic study.Knavesbee I Had Last Night One Of The Strangest Dreams;methought I Was Thy Confessor, Thou Mine, And We Reveal'd Between Us Privately How Often We Had Wrong'd Each Other's Bed Since We Were Married.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
