More widely studied and more frequently performed than ever before,
John Webster's" The Duchesss of Malfi "is here presented in an
accessible and thoroughly up-to-date edition. Based on the often
reprinted "Revels Plays Edition "of 1964, the notes have been
augmented to cast further light on Webster's amazing dialogue and
on the stage action which it implies. An entirely new introduction
sets the tragedy in the context of pre-Civil War England and gives
a revealing view of its themes, action and visual imagery. From its
well-documented early performances to the two productions seen in
the West End of London in the 1995-96 season, a stage history gives
an account of the play in performance. Students, actors, directors
and theatre-goers will fiind here a reappraisal of Webster's
artistry in the tragedy which stands in the very first rank of
plays from perhaps the greatest age of English theatre, and reasons
why it has lived on stage with renewed force in the last decades of
the twentieth century.
