Bøker av Thomas Heywood

Thomas Heywood (c.1573-1641) was one of the most prolific and influential dramatists of the Elizabethan, Jacobean, and early Caroline theatre. This modern edition of his works establishes him as a major and seminal contributor to early modern English drama, poetry and prose. Volume 3 presents the five Age plays that he wrote to delight and teach.

Two women fight for their emotional survival in a rural wilderness dominated by men, money and an unbending morality.

This unique edition brings together four plays concerned with 'domestic' themes: Arden of Faversham, Heywood's A Woman Killed with Kindness and The English Traveller, and Dekker, Rowley and Ford's The Witch of Edmonton. Texts are in modern spelling, accompanied by a critical introduction, wide-ranging annotation and bibliography.
