Description: the mercilessly barbed comic genius that places Ben Jonson second only to Shakespeare among Elizabethan dramatists shines forth in these, is masterpieces, Volpone, with its classic miser anti-hero heading a cast of characters who rival one another in avarice and hypocrisy, is justly famed as one of the most savage and skillful comedies ever penned and performed. The Alchemist, featuring a team of swindlers setting up shop to fleece a parade of well-heeled citizens eager to added wealth, is a striking commentary on the vice of greed. Mercury Vindicated, a masque - written to provide entertainment at a royal banquet and a delightful display of the sunlit side of Jonson's vision and the lyric loveliness of his poetry. Introduction and Notes by Jonathan Price.
