About This Book

This volume gathers three stage dramas that range from historical saga pieces to a satirical comedy: two plays stage conflicts of allegiance, succession, and the demands of honor in a bygone setting, alternating intimate domestic moments with public intrigue; the third play treats courtship and artistic romance with biting wit, exposing hypocrisies in social convention and the theatricality of love. Together the dramas display variety in tone and form—lyrical passages, political maneuvering, and ironic commentary—while examining how personal desire, social expectation, and moral conviction collide onstage.

Transcriber’s Note

The Notes that follow “Love’s Comedy” are indexed to page numbers relative to the start of that play. Page 18, for instance, is printed as page 304, and is the 18th page. The sole exception is the final note, referenced to p. 160, which should be p. 168 according to this logic. Each has been linked to the proper page.

Errors deemed most likely to be the printer’s have been corrected, and are noted here. The references are to the page and line in the original. The following issues should be noted, along with the resolutions.
