A burlesque of knight errantry and a parody of Heywood's "Four Prentice's of London "from the English Elizabethan dramatist.
This volume presents a fresh new edition of the most important play by one of Shakespeare’s most creative contemporaries. Francis Beaumont’s The Knight of the Burning Pestle is a free-wheeling, satirical romp through the world of early modern theatre. Hilarious, outrageous, and unpredictable, Beaumont’s comedy confounded its first audiences, but has since been recognized as a rare comedic gem from the golden age of English playmaking.
