«The Changeling» is the Renaissance tragedy by Thomas Middleton and William Rowley, published by Methuen Drama in paperback (176 pages, in English).
Tragedy of the English Renaissance theater in which desire and ambition unleash a chain of deceptions and conflicts. The play contrasts a dark main plot with a comic subplot, and stands out for its exploration of the relationships between money, sex and power and for its presence on university courses.
Second edition in the New Mermaids series, edited and annotated by Joost Daalder. The play dates from 1622.
Recommended for students of English literature and theater, as well as for readers interested in Renaissance tragedy and seventeenth-century theater.
Thomas Middleton was an English Jacobean playwright and poet. He, with John Fletcher and Ben Jonson, was among the most successful and prolific of playwrights at work in the Jacobean period, and among the few to gain equal success in comedy and tragedy. He was also a prolific writer of masques and pageants.
