All Fools, written in 1599, is the only Elizabethan comedy based directly on the plays of Terence. By taking episodes and characters from two brilliant works, The Self-Tormenter and The Brothers, Chapman creates something that is distinctly Elizabethan while remaining faithful to the spirit of the great Roman master. In this edition, an extensive introduction and commentary show how Chapman combines the literary and theatrical traditions of ancient Rome with everyday life in his own time to fashion a sparkling and innovative comedy that will delight audiences today as much as it did those of 1599.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: GBItem Height: 216mmItem Length: 138mmAuthor: Charles EdelmanGenre: Poetry & DramaBook Series: Revels PlaysTopic: Music Dance & Theatre, Literary CriticismItem Width: 12mmItem Weight: 268gRelease Year: 2022 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
