Il Dottor Sottile, l'alchimista es una obra maestra de Ben Jonson y del teatro cómico. La historia se desarrolla en la Inglaterra del siglo XVII, durante un brote de peste en Londres. Facciatosta, encargado de cuidar la casa de su amo, se asocia con el Dottor Sottile, un alquimista y estafador, y su cómplice Dora para engañar a personas de todas las clases sociales, prometiéndoles fortunas y amores eternos. Esta comedia destaca la capacidad de algunos personajes para delinquir y la predisposición de otros a ser engañados, reflejando una sociedad cínica y degradada.

Ben Jonson was an English actor, poet and playwright. Jonson's artistry exerted a lasting influence on English poetry and stage comedy. He popularised the comedy of humours; he is best known for the satirical plays Every Man in His Humour (1598), Volpone, or The Fox, The Alchemist (1610), and Bartholomew Fair (1614), and for his lyric and epigrammatic poetry. He is regarded as "the second most important English dramatist, after William Shakespeare, during the reign of James I."
