  1. Volume Two of Three. Edited by Lt. Colonel Francis Cunningham. Dramatist, poet, scholar and writer of court masques, Ben Jonson was the leading literary figure during the reign of King James I. Jonson was known as an avid scholar of Latin and Greek, and his mastery of the classics, the high-spirited buoyancy of his plays and the brilliance of his language have earned him a reputation as one of the great playwrights in English literature. Jonson was appointed court poet in 1605, and became a writer of court masques-elaborate spectacles that involved music, dancing, and pageantry. Contents of the Second Volume: The Alchemist; Catiline His Conspiracy; Bartholomew Fair; The Devil Is An Ass; The Staple of News; The New Inn; or, The Light Heart; The Magnetic Lady; or, Humours Reconciled; A Tale of a Tub; The Sad Shepherd; or, a Tale of Robin Hood; Mortimer His Fall; The Case is Altered; and Entertainments. See other titles by this author available from Kessinger Publishing. Other volumes in this set are ISBN(s): 1417944676, 1417944692.
