Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not
used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad
quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are
images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to
keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the
original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain
imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made
available for future generations to enjoy.
The 18th century was a wealth of knowledge, exploration and rapidly
growing technology and expanding record-keeping made possible by
advances in the printing press. In its determination to preserve
the century of revolution, Gale initiated a revolution of its own:
digitization of epic proportions to preserve these invaluable works
in the largest archive of its kind. Now for the first time these
high-quality digital copies of original 18th century manuscripts
are available in print, making them highly accessible to libraries,
undergraduate students, and independent scholars.Western literary
study flows out of eighteenth-century works by Alexander Pope,
Daniel Defoe, Henry Fielding, Frances Burney, Denis Diderot, Johann
Gottfried Herder, Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, and others.

In the family of passions none is more patient than hate. This
masterpiece of the Elizabethan stage, first published in 1607, is a
study of debauchery, deep offense, and the high cost of revenge. It
is often compared to Hamlet for its relentless tension and its
lecherous royalty. Its protagonist, Vindice, is one of the most
memorable characters in all of Renaissance theater, a murderer who
will not let a single enemy remain alive.
Drama Classics: The World's Great Plays at a Great Little Price A
Jacobean tale of personal vengeance in a morally bankrupt world.
Vindice has vowed to revenge the murder of his beloved Gloriana by
the lustful Duke, and when he gains access to the court in
disguise, havoc ensues... The Revenger's Tragedy was first
performed in London in 1606 or 1607, and was subsequently published
anonymously. It has been variously attributed to Cyril Tourneur and
Thomas Middleton. This edition of the play, in the Nick Hern Books
Drama Classics series, is edited by R.A. Foakes and includes an
introduction by Trevor R. Griffiths.
