β¦ Synopsis
The English Jacobean and Caroline playwright, Philip Massinger was celebrated for his comedic genius, finely plotted plays, social realism and incisive satire. Following the death of Shakespeare in 1616 and Fletcher in 1625, Massinger became the leading playwright of the Kingβs Menβs. His most popular and influential play, βA New Way to Pay Old Debtsβ expresses a timeless indignation at economic oppression and social disorder, while βThe City Madamβ deals with similar evils, combining naturalistic and symbolic modes. For the first time in publishing history, this eBook presents Massingerβs complete works, with numerous illustrations, rare plays and poetry, concise introductions and the usual Delphi bonus material.
