About This Book

This collection presents several dramatic works by the collaborative playwrights, pairing stark tragedies with lively comedies. The darker pieces dramatize power, moral corruption, and violent retribution while testing ideals of virtue and honor. The comic plays rely on misadventure, disguise, and witty exchange to generate romantic confusion and social satire. Textual collation and editorial notes accompany the plays, clarifying variant readings and guiding readers through the works' shifts of tone, structure, and theatrical effect.
