The Works of John Webster: Volume 4, Sir Thomas Wyatt, Westward Ho, Northward Ho, The Fair Maid of the Inn: Sir Thomas Wyatt, Westward Ho, Northward Ho, The Fair Maid of the Inn

This is the fourth and final volume of the Cambridge edition of the works of John Webster. It contains four plays Webster wrote in collaboration, one - Sir Thomas Wyatt, a historical tragedy based around Lady Jane Grey - as part of a team of five led by Thomas Dekker, two - Westward Ho and Northward Ho, city comedies that prompted Chapman, Jonson, and Marston’s Eastward Ho - with Thomas Dekker alone, and one - The Fair Maid of the Inn, an Italianate tragicomedy of which Webster wrote the largest share - with John Fletcher, Philip Massinger and John Ford. With the inclusion of these four plays, this Cambridge edition becomes the first complete works of John Webster. The edition preserves the original spelling of the plays, poetry, and prose, and incorporates the most recent editorial scholarship, including information on Webster’s share in the collaborative plays, and new critical methods, textual theory, and theatrical analysis.
