This volume, 'Four Old Plays,' presents a carefully curated selection of dramatic works from the English Renaissance. It includes three interludes: 'Thersytes,' 'Jack Jugler,' and John Heywood’s 'Pardoner and Frere.' These short, often comedic, plays offer a fascinating glimpse into the popular entertainment of the period. Also featured is 'Jocasta,' a tragedy by Gascoigne and Kinwelmarsh, providing a contrasting example of the more serious dramatic forms prevalent at the time.With a detailed introduction and comprehensive notes, this collection is an invaluable resource for students and scholars of English literature, offering insights into the theatrical landscape and literary tastes of the 16th century. The interludes showcase the wit and social commentary characteristic of early English drama, while 'Jocasta' exemplifies the influence of classical tragedy on Renaissance playwrights.
