This is the new paperback edition of the first fully annotated
volume of Ben Jonson's "The Magnetic Lady" written in 1632. It
contains textual and explanatory notes and the text is modernized
for student use. The introduction places the play in the context of
Jonson's later dramatic and poetic works and discusses the
political context of the Caroline court. A performance history of
the play and fresh material relating to its seventeenth-century
reception are also provided. This edition by Peter Happè critically
reappraises Jonson's much-neglected play and argues for its
recognition as a work of real distinction.
