81. Ameilia Lanyer but she was specifically a patron of Ben Jonson, dramatic successor to Shakespeare, and after his death (1573) married Sir John Wingfield in 1581. http://faculty.goucher.edu/eng211/ameilia_lanyer.htm

Ameilia Lanyer, Salve Deus Rex Judæorum Dedicatory Poems Genre: The dedicatory poem might be considered a variety of the invocation of the Muse, since the patron often is said to be the cause for the poem's existence, either because of financial assistance offered the poet, or because the patron actually requested composition of the poem. "To Cooke-ham" is an example of both. The modern book often contains similar sentiments in prose located in the introductions, but the nearest most modern authors get to a spiritually moving acknowledgment of their "Muse" often is in the "dedication" page, usually immediately after the title page and containing only a brief "To..." (spouse, children, parents, teachers, etc.). Characters: Lanyer, herself, as well as her sequence of patrons, the most important of which are Lady Susan, Countess Dowager of Kent, Mary (Sidney) Countess Dowager of Pembroke, Anne Clifford and her mother, Lady Margaret, Dowager Countess of Montgomery. Plot Summary: We might say the dedicatory poems enact a series of negotiations between Lanyer and the patrons in which she tries to weld them, one by one, into a supportive interpretive audience for her work. She directly addresses her fear of the male reading public at several points, as well as her dread of and scorn for the envious attacks by other women (see Marie?). Mainly she attempts to establish each patron as someone whose intellect demands the poem's creation and whose aesthetic and social distinction will assure its success.

JOHN STOW STOW, JOHN The work by which Stow is best known is his Survey of London, published in 1598, not only interesting from the quaint simplicity of its style and its amusing descriptions and anecdotes, but of unique value from its minute account of the buildings, social condition and customs of London in the time of Elizabeth. A second edition appeared in his lifetime in 1603, a third with additions by Anthony Munday in 1618, a fourth by Munday and Dyson in 1633, a fifth with interpolated amendments by John Strype in 1720, and a sixth by the same editor in 1754. The edition of 1^98 was reprinted, edited by W. J. Thorns, in 1842, Stow's Survey of London has been edited with notes by C. L. Kingsford (Oxford, 1908).

How the Shakespeare Plays Fit Bacon's Life-Story Chapter XIV pp.78-91 from the book Enter Francis Bacon by Bertram Theobald Loves Labour's Lost Othello Merry Wives of Windsor Merchant of Venice ... King Lear "Love's Labour's Lost" By common consent, this play is ranked as one of the earliest of the Shakespeare dramas, being usually assingned to the year 1589, or thereabouts. The scene is laid at the Court of Navarre and in precisely those regions of France which Francis Bacon had visited during his residence abroad from 1576 to 1579. Not only so, but his brother Anthony, with whom he maintained a close correspondence, resided at the Court of Navarre between 1585 and 1590. Professor Abel Lefranc, though not arguing for the authorship of Francis Bacon, has made a very special study of this play, and, as a Frenchman, is entitled to be heard where there are questions of detailed knowledge of French history, besides minute topographical descriptions indicating personal experience on the part of the author. After quoting Monte'gut, a French critic of great learning, who remarks how extraordinarily faithful the author is, even in the smallest details, to historical truth and to local colour, Professor Lefranc says : That the author of Love's Labours Lost knew and had visited the Court of Navarre is apparent, if only we can agree to study the play without any preconceived hypothesis and try to learn something about the history of this little kingdom of Ne'rac....All the explanations that have been given of this play.....in order to justify the theory of its composition by Shakespeare the player at the outset of his dramatic career, as also every element of the comedy itself, and every incident in the life of the Stratford player, prove the impossibility of his being the author os such a work.

95. Charles Wisner Barrell - "Shake-speare's" Unknown Home On The River Avon Discove references occur among the commendatory verses addressed to the Bard by BenJonson and Leonard Digges. Toward the end of his panegyric Jonson exclaims http://www.sourcetext.com/sourcebook/library/barrell/06avon.htm

"Shake-speare's" Unknown Home On the River Avon Discovered Edward De Vere's Ownership of a Famous Warwickshire Literary Retreat Indicates Him As the True "Sweet Swan of Avon." First published in The Shakespeare Fellowship News-Letter , December 1942. How now, mad wag! what a devil dost thou in Warwickshire? Falstaff to Prince Hal, 1 Henry IV. In claiming positive identification of the native of Stratford-on-Avon, Warwickshire, as the true and only "Mr. William Shakespeare," whose matchless comedies, histories and tragedies were issued in the royal crown folio of 1623, running to nearly one thousand double-columned pages, accepted authorities point with finality to the following circumstances: 2. A mural memorial to the author of the Shakespearean works was affixed to the north wall of the chancel in Trinity Church, Stratford, at some unrecorded date, presumably between the year 1616, when the citizen of Stratford was buried, and the year 1623, when the First Folio was published. 3. The introductory pages to the First Folio contain two references to "Shakespeare" which unquestionably associate this name with both the town of Stratford and the River Avon. These references occur among the commendatory verses addressed to the Bard by Ben Jonson and Leonard Digges.

VOLPONE O EL ZORRO de Benjamín Jonson BENJAMIN JONSON, dramaturgo inglés contemporáneo de Shakespeare, nace en Westminster el 11 de julio de 1573 y muere en Londres, el 6 de agosto de 1673. De familia muy humilde, gracias a la protección de G. Camden hace algunos estudios en Westminster y Cambridge, pero luego tiene que abandonarlos, para ayudar a su padrastro, que era albañil. Disgustado de su oficio, huye a Flandes, donde pelea contra los españoles y a su regreso a Londres en 1592 entra a una compañía de cómicos ambulantes, donde presta sus servicios de actor y autor. Su primera producción "Every man in his humour" (1598) marca ya la característica de su teatro, que consiste en el drama burgués, en contraposición al romántico, al estilo Shakespeare. Compone además "Every man out of his humour" (1599), "Cinthia´s reveals" (1600), "The poetaster" (1601), "Volpone or the fox" (1605). Más tarde, JONSON se inclinaría a la tragedia histórica en cuyo género compone: "Sejanus" (1605), "Catilina" (1616). Cultivó también con gran maestría, el género dramático de la "mascarada", o sea el drama destinado a representarse en las fiestas áulicas. La pieza de este género "The masque of blackness" estrenada en 1605, fue representada por la reina y las damas de su corte. VOLPONE O EL ZORRO satiriza la bajeza y la infamia provocadas por la ansiedad del dinero, su protagonista es un viejo señor veneciano, ávido de riquezas y a la vez hipócrita y astuto.

Perseus McCoy's Bibliography Roslin ... Bob's e-mail Inigo Jones The English theater that flourished in the Elizabethan and Jacobean periods followed scenic practices that had evolved from the medieval theater. It was Inigo Jones, court architect and designer for both James I and Charles I, who brought the Italian innovations in scene design to England These included temporary proscenium picture-frame arches, systems for changing scenery, and painted perspective stage sets. In his settings for the court masques Jones introduced the methods of staging that were to become standard after the Restoration. Jones's designs were influenced by the works of Parigi and Palladio, which he had studied. on his visits to Italy. Though he was the son of a London cloth worker and therefore not wealthy, he had traveled to Italy by 1603 to learn painting and design. He became a portrait painter for Christian IV of Denmark before a commission from the king's sister, Queen Anne of England, brought him to the court of James I. His first stage designs were the scenery and costumes for The Masque of Blackness (1605), which also began his long and stormy collaboration with the court poet Ben Jonson.

J. Gordon, Stephen Orgel, and Roy Strong, and equally importantly, to the recent vitality of politically inflected historical criticism. And for good reason: the masque is something of a New Historicist's dream come true, a genre exemplary of literature's direct engagement with the micropolitics of English court culture, or, as Ben Jonson puts it in his preface to Hymenaei , a genre preoccupied with "sound[ing] to present occasions" (line 17).
