No Wit No Help Like A Woman’s is a play written by Thomas Middleton, a prominent English playwright of the 17th century. The play revolves around the character of Sir Thomas, a wealthy and powerful man who is seeking to marry his daughter, Maria, to a suitable husband. However, Maria has her own ideas about who she wants to marry, and she is determined to marry for love rather than for money or status.As the play unfolds, we see Maria using her wit and intelligence to outsmart her father and pursue her own desires. She is aided in her efforts by a group of women who are similarly determined to assert their independence and challenge the patriarchal norms of their society.No Wit No Help Like A Woman’s is a lively and entertaining play that explores themes of gender, power, and love in a witty and engaging way. It is a testament to the strength and resilience of women in a world that often seeks to limit their opportunities and control their lives.WEATHERWISE Marry, sir, I’ll give it out abroad that I have lain with the widow myself, as ’tis the fashion of many a gallant to disgrace his new mistress when he cannot have his will of her, and lie with her name in every tavern, though he ne’er came within a yard of her person; so I, being a gentleman, may say as much in that kind as a gallant: I am as free by my father’s copy.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
