University Of York - Dept Of English - Theatres Of Revenge Theatres of Revenge, 15801642 Dramatist, Player, Spectator, and the Early John Webster, The White Devil and The Duchess of Malfi; George Chapman, http://www.york.ac.uk/depts/engl/gsp/taughtma/revenge.htm
Extractions: The construction of the first permanent playhouses in London in the 1570s revolutionized theatre in England. Their existence transformed the circumstances of performance for both actor and spectator and enormously enhanced the scope and range of the kinds of performance possible. They also brought into being a new breed of English craftsman and artist, the professional playwright. Over the next half century the collaborations between several generations of extraordinary dramatists and players generated a sequence of dramatic experiments, which would make English theatre the most innovatory in Europe. This MA course seeks to map the dynamics of these collaborations via a detailed exploration of one dramatic mode - revenge tragedy - to which all the period's most remarkable writers made incisive contributions. Detailed attention will be paid both to crucial moments of innovation and reinvention within the revenge tradition and to the ways in which some key works - Kyd's The Spanish Tragedy , for instance, and Shakespeare's Hamlet - exercised a formative power over their successors' work in this fertile tragic mode.
Whitedevil2 John Webster (1580?1634?) A Short Biographical Profile. Like many other Jacobeanplaywrights, little was known of John Webster until recently. http://www.litnotes.co.uk/whitedevil2.htm
Extractions: Like many other Jacobean playwrights, little was known of John Webster until recently. In 1985, the research efforts of Mary Edmond greatly contributed to the information available on Webster . Edmond establishes that "Webster was the son of a prosperous coachmaker, John Webster the elder, who was a member of the prestigious Company of Merchant Taylors" . The elder John Webster married in 1577 and most critics believe the playwright's son was born shortly after the marriage. Research also shows that Webster had a younger brother, Edward, but due to the Great Fire of London the "records of St. Sepulchre, Holborn were destroyed . . . It is not possible to obtain precise dates of birth, marriage, and death for Webster's family". In 1587 at the age of nine, Webster is thought to have entered the Merchant Taylors' School and was taught by the schoolmaster Henry Wilkinson, who "believed in teaching English rather than exclusively in Latin, and he encouraged the performance of music and plays to encourage discipline and self-confidence in his students" . After the opening of the Theatre in 1576, most of the Merchant Taylors' School performances were moved from the court to the theatre . Critics agree that it is likely Webster participated in many of these performances during his more formative years. Existing evidence shows that during Webster's hiatus from 1602 to 1613, the dramatist married Sara Peniall and began a family. His eldest son, also named John, was baptized in 1606. Sara, ten years younger than Webster, was seventeen when giving birth to their first son. Hammond states that "other baptismal records are lacking, but from a neighbour's will it is clear that the Websters had a large family and were citizens in good standing with the community" . During this time Webster's writing seems to have stopped. Webster apparently had "sufficient means to live an independent life. His next published work is The White Devil"

The "wits" included Thomas Kyd, Christopher Marlowe John Lyly , and Robert Greene Thomas Kyd wrote The Spanish Tragedy, the most popular play of the 16th century. He constructed a well-planned plot which made for a very interesting play. The Cambridge-educated Christopher Marlowe was important in the development of chronicle plays such as Edward II . He also wrote the well-known play Doctor Faustus. John Lyly was another member of the University Wits who wrote primarily pastoral comedies in which he used mythology along with English subjects.
