This critical edition preserves the original spelling of all the plays; incorporates editorial scholarship, including valuable information on Webster's share in the collaborative plays; and employs alternative critical methods and textual theory. In particular, the edition integrates theatrical aspects of the plays with their bibliographical and literary features in a way not previously attempted in a scholarly edition of a Jacobean dramatist. The edition presents all of Webster's plays (with the exception of those collaborative plays already published in the Cambridge editions of Dekker, and Beaumont and Fletcher) and provides a brief biography, an account of Webster canon, illustrations, and critical and theatrical history of each play.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eList of illustrations\u003cbr\u003e General preface to Volume two\u003cbr\u003e General textual preface\u003cbr\u003e Acknowledgements\u003cbr\u003e List of abbreviations\u003cbr\u003e The Devil's Law-Case\u003cbr\u003e A Cure for a Cuckold\u003cbr\u003e Appius and Virginia\u003cbr\u003e Corrigenda Volume one: music.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eSubject Areas: Literary studies: plays \u0026amp; playwrights [\u003ca title=\"See our other books on Literary studies: plays \u0026amp; playwrights\" href=\"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/search?q=%22Literary%20studies:%20plays%20\u0026amp;%20playwrights%20%5BDSG%5D%22\"\u003eDSG\u003c\/a\u003e], Theatre studies [\u003ca title=\"See our other books on Theatre studies\" href=\"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/search?q=%22Theatre%20studies%20%5BAN%5D%22\"\u003eAN\u003c\/a\u003e]\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003c\/font\u003e","brand":"Cambridge University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46005929541912,"sku":"9780521035118","price":68.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0730\/2037\/5320\/products\/9780521035118i_6de08e4c-171d-4e98-8217-b02ec250883f.jpg?v=1694968293","url":"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/products\/the-works-of-john-webster-volume-2-the-devils-law-case-a-cure-for-a-cuckold-appius-and-virginia-paperback-9780521035118","provider":"Freshly Printed Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
