内容説明
The Malone Society General Editor: John Pitcher , St John's College, Oxford From January 1990 Oxford University Press will publish and distribute books throughout the world on behalf of The Malone Society. Full details of the Society's volumes published between 1985 and 1989 appear below. Selected backlist titles will also be available (see page 000 for details of this, and membership of the Society). For the first time in its history, it will be possible to purchase the Society's publications through bookshops. The Society was founded in 1906 and named after Edmond Malone, editor of the first variorum edition of Shakespeare (1790). Its first general editor was W. W. Greg, whose standards of accuracy in the editing of English Renaissance play texts and documents established for the Society a reputation for meticulous scholarship which subsequent editors have amply sustained. Its volumes, all of which contain material not readily available elsewhere, are indispensable to serious students of English drama, and to scholarly libraries. The Society has published one hundred and fifty volumes under its own imprint.
It will continue to provide editions of English Renaissance plays from manuscript; photographic facsimile editions of printed plays of the period; and editions of manuscript and printed documents related to Renaissance drama. As in the past, the emphasis in future publications will be placed on the bibliographical, textual, and historical circumstances of the play, text or documents concerned. In the coming years, the Society will produce editions of A Game at Chess (from Middleton's autography manuscript); Tom a Lincoln (a Jacobean play c.

The Queen of Corsica by Francis Jaques is a hitherto unedited play, dated 1642, in a British Library manuscript. It does not appear to have been acted, although its detailed scene directions indicate the author's keen interest in the theatrical (and occasionally macabre) possibilities of late Caroline drama.
It is a play written in the popular mode, with signs of influence from contemporary dramatists, and perhaps from the political crisis immediately before the Civil War. This book is intended for scholars and graduate students of Renaissance drama, textual and bibliographical problems, and social history.
