Plays by Renaissance and Restoration Dramatists 11 Volume Set: The Selected Plays of John Webster: The White Devil, The Duchess of Malfi, The Devil's Law Case

by JonathanDollimore (Editor), Alan Sinfield (Editor)

Synopsis

The plays of John Webster are read and seen more widely today than at any time since they were written - provoking much disagreement in the process. The continuing debate about his political, religious and philosophical attitudes, his formal skills and the importance of his plays for understanding the changing culture in which they were written, make Webster the most controversial of all Jacobean dramatists. This volume includes freshly collated, fully annotated and cross-referenced texts of his three best-known plays, together with introductions and a useful critical bibliography.
