Introductions, Notes, and Commentaries to Texts in "The Dramatic Works of Thomas Dekker" Edited by Fredson Bowers
Introductions, Notes and Commentaries to Texts in ' The Dramatic Works of Thomas Dekker ': Volume 1, Sir Thomas More: Dekker's Addition; The Shoemakers' Holiday; Old Fortunatus; Patient Grissil; Satiromastix; Sir Thomas Wyatt
Author: Cyrus Hoy
Publisher: Cambridge University Press
ISBN: 9780521217866
Category : Literary Collections
Languages : en
Pages : 380
Book Description
Four of the plays in this volume are based on important source materials, so that the relationship of plays to sources looms large in Cyrus Hoy's introductory essays. There is an extensive account of the relation of The Shoemakers' Holiday to Deloney's Gentle Craft. The Introduction to Old Fortunatus relates in detail that play's relationship to the German Volksbuch, and to the German Comoedia von Fortunate und seinem Seckel und Wünschhütlein (1620), a redaction of Dekker's play. The Introduction to Patient Grissil relates Dekker, Chettle and Haughton's play to the tradition of the Griselda story generally. The chronicle-history sources (Foxe, Grafton, Stow, Holinshed) of Sir Thomas Wyatt are surveyed in the Introduction, in his Introduction also, Professor Hoy considers the play's relationship to the lost play, Lady Jane, by Dekker, Chettle, Heywood, Webster and W. Smith. Satiromastix has no known source, but as Dekker's contribution to the stage quarrel of Marston and Jonson, this is a play that has always had particular interest for the student of Elizabethan theatrical history, and Professor Hoy therefore bestows on it the most elaborate Commentary in all these four volumes.

Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
The final volume of the Cambridge Dekker contains The Welsh Ambassador, The Noble Spanish Soldier, Lust's Dominion, The Sun's Darling, London's Tempe and Britannia's Honour. Professor Bowers's edition is recognized as a model critical old-spelling text, where the techniques of strong textual and bibliographical study have been methodically applied to one of the least accessible of the Elizabethan dramatists. The introductions to each play provide textual analyses that set out the circumstances of publication and transmission. The critical apparatus gives press variants derived from collations, editorial emendations to the copy-text and other textual notes.
