Book excerpt: This book is a collection of two plays written by popular English playwright Thomas Heywood, who lived in the 16th and 17 centuries. "A Woman Killed with Kindness" was first acted in 1603 and published in 1607, and "The Fair Maid of the West" was first acted and published in 1631. These works offer readers the opportunity to absorb some of Heywood's most prominent writings. "A Woman Killed with Kindness" is Thomas Heywood's signature drama. It is the story of John and Anne Frankford, a married couple, and a man by the name of Wendoll, a houseguest of the Frankford's. While living with the Frankford's Wendoll begins to pursue Anne, which causes great distress in the household. This play is considered a masterwork of the domestic tragedy subgenre, and demonstrates Early Elizabethan and Jacobean views of the world and the gender roles of men and women. While lesser known, "The Fair Maid of the West" is another seminal work by Thomas Heywood. Once again this play explores gender roles, this time in a play set in Plymouth, England the late 16th century. The principal character is Bess Bridges, a young woman who works at a bar in Plymouth. The two-part comedy explores the life and hardships of Bess, as she is pursued by men and seeks to carve her own path in the world. More humorous than "A Woman Killed with Kindness," "The Fair Maid of the West" still contains a good deal of drama and is an excellent representation of early modern English theatre. Fans of English Renaissance theatre will surely enjoy this collection of two of Thomas Heywood's greatest works. While written and first published decades apart, the two plays share a style and thematic interest in gender roles that are characteristic of Heywood's plays. This collection is highly recommended to both fans of Thomas Heywood and those who are unfamiliar with the playwright but curious about the history of English theatrical productions.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Here lies she whom her husband's kindness killed” This is the epitaph, in golden letters, Master John Frankford proposes for the tomb of his wife, Anne, who has just starved herself to death. Frankford congratulates himself on the clever means by which he has brought his wife to repentance-and got rid of her. The marriage is comfortable, if uneventful, until Frankford gives his friend Wendoll the free use of his table and purse. When Wendoll takes even more than was offered, and confesses his desperate love to Anne, a complex and tragic drama ensues. Praised as Heywood's best play and as the best “domestic tragedy,” A Woman Killed with Kindness (1603) requires us to consider who and what the household includes and on what conditions. What are the limits of hospitality? What are the relationships between friendship and marriage, intimacy and possession? This student edition contains a fully annotated version of the playtext in modern spelling. The Introduction includes a detailed discussion of the play's interpretation and stage history.
