Many new readings, as well as improvements in stage directions and lineation, are either introduced or proposed. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe introduction throws new light on Beaumont and Fletcher's use of the three known sources (two of them previously neglected) of incidents in the play, gives the fullest available account of its stage history and provides a sympathetic interpretation of the play as a romantic tragedy.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/correctionsbookstore.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=AUTH-11939531\"\u003eT.
