The Dramatic Works in the Beaumont and Fletcher Canon
This is the ninth volume in a ten-volume series of the critical old-spelling texts of the plays in the Beaumont and Fletcher canon, in which the texts are established on modern bibliographical principles. This volume contains the texts of six plays written by Fletcher and his collaborators, William Rowley and Philip Massinger. Each play is introduced by a discussion of the text and authorship, has variant readings in footnotes, and is followed by full textual notes and lists of press-variants, emendations of accidentals and historical collations.
- Fredson Bowers died in 1991. R. Turner is the executive editor, but Bower's name is on publicity and on the front of the book, title page, etc.
