Plays and Poems of Nicholas Rowe, Volume II - The Middle Period Plays

Zusatztext "[T]he quality of the editorial work is uniformly excellent. The edition also includes a range of appendices containing a wealth of supplementary material including performance listings! prologues and epilogues! and! notably! all extant vocal music for Rowe's dramas. The scores! beautifully edited by Joe Lockwood! are a significant contribution to our understanding of Rowe's plays as the importance of music in Restoration and early eighteenth-century drama is often overlooked.""...the very real contribution of this edition? illuminates Rowe's literary career and! for the first time! establishes a scholarly text of his works."- Jean L. Marsden! Review of English Studies Informationen zum Autor Michael Caines Zusammenfassung Nicholas Rowe was the first Poet Laureate of the Georgian era. A fascinating yet largely overlooked figure in eighteenth-century literature, his plays are important both for the way they address the concerns of the day and for reflecting a period in which the theatre was in crisis. This is the first scholarly edition of all Rowe’s plays and poems.
