- Double-weighted statement
- This edition is the product of research into a large body of primary material – jestbooks, sermons, rogue literature, courtier literature, music books, diaries, ballads, ephemera – on the writing, staging and publication of this, the last play put on before the closure of the theatres in 1642. Appendices provide the play’s music, identified through fresh primary research; define the source of the play’s beggar’s ‘cant’; and look, for the first time, at the words that Brome coined. The edition is a major contribution to understanding of Caroline theatre, interregnum publication, early modern language and music.
