The Elizabethan dramatist Thomas Dekker was a versatile and prolific writer, whose career spanned several decades and brought him into contact with many of the period's most famous dramatists. Of the surviving plays that are entirely Dekker’s work, the best-known are ‘The Shoemakers Holiday’ (1600) and ‘The Honest Whore, Part 2’ (1630), which are typical of his work in their use of the moralistic tone of traditional drama. His ear for colloquial speech served him well in his vibrant portrayals of daily life in London and his works are characterised for their boisterousness nature and an inimitable mixture of realistic detail and romanticised plot. Dekker was also a writer of pamphlets, celebrated for their lively depictions of London life, vividly charting the city’s traumatic times.

The Elizabethan playwright, poet and satirist, Thomas Nashe was the author of ‘The Unfortunate Traveller’, the first picaresque novel of English literature. His masterpiece was ‘Pierce Penniless, His Supplication to the Divell’, a prose satire that was among the most popular of the Elizabethan pamphlets. Employing a free and extemporaneous prose style, full of colloquialisms, neologisms and fantastic idiosyncrasies, Nashe entertains the reader with a story in which immediate entertainment is favoured over narrative structure. Complex, witty and colourfully anecdotal, Nashe’s work is as brash and bitingly sharp today as when it was first penned over four centuries ago. For the first time, this eBook presents Nashe’s complete works, with numerous illustrations, rare texts, informative introductions and the usual Delphi bonus material. (Version 1) * Beautifully illustrated with images relating to Nashe’s life and works * Concise introductions to the major texts * All the plays, poetry and pamphlets, with individual contents tables * Rare texts appearing for the first time in digital publishing * Images of how the books were first published, giving your eReader a taste of the original texts * Excellent formatting of the texts * Scarce pamphlets available in no other collection * Includes Nashe’s poetry * Features two biographies – discover Nashe’s Elizabethan world * Ordering of texts into chronological order and genres CONTENTS: The Novel The Unfortunate Traveller (1594) The Plays Summer’s Last Will and Testament (1592) The Tragedie of Dido, Queene of Carthage (1594) The Poetry The Choise of Valentines (c. 1593) Other Verses Harvey-Nashe Controversy Pamphlets Strange Newes, of the Intercepting Certaine Letters (1592) Christ’s Tears over Jerusalem (1593) Have with You to Saffron-Walden (1596) Other Pamphlets The Anatomy of Absurdity (1589) A Countercuffe Given to Martin Junio (1589) The Returne of Pasquill (1589) Preface to Greene’s Menaphon (1589) An Almond for a Parrot (1590) The First Parte of Pasquils Apologie (1590) A Wonderfull strange and miraculous Astrologicall Prognostication (1591) Preface to Sir Philip Sidney’s Astrophel and Stella (1591) Pierce Penilesse His Supplication to the Divell (1592) The Terrors of the Night (1594) Nashe’s Lenten Stuffe (1599) The Biographies An Essay on the Life and Writings of Thomas Nash (1892) by Edmund Gosse Thomas Nashe (1900) by Sidney Lee

The English Jacobean and Caroline playwright, Philip Massinger was celebrated for his comedic genius, finely plotted plays, social realism and incisive satire. Following the death of Shakespeare in 1616 and Fletcher in 1625, Massinger became the leading playwright of the King's Men's.

The Elizabethan writer John Lyly is regarded as the first prose stylist to leave an enduring impression upon the English language. His prose romance concerning the misadventures of Euphues, regarded by some as the first novel of English literature, launched his literary career in 1580’s London. Lyly’s interest with the exact arrangement and selection of words, his frequent use of classical similes and his artificial, yet elegant prose established the ‘euphuism’ style. In his work as a playwright, he contributed significantly to the development of prose dialogue in English drama. His comedies mark an advance upon those of his predecessors, with tales drawn from classical mythology, complemented with witty dialogue and skillful plot development. This eBook presents Lyly’s complete works, with numerous illustrations, rare texts appearing in digital print for the first time, informative introductions and the usual Delphi bonus material.
