The diary of Philip Henslowe, owner of the Rose Theatre in London during the 1590s, remains the most valuable source of information about the workings of the Elizabethan public theatres. Discussions of theatres and drama in the age of Shakespeare routinely refer to Henslowe, whose 'diary' touches on every aspect of the day-to-day operations of the Rose and the companies of actors, especially the Admiral's Men. The diary preserves the account-book of an Elizabethan theatre owner who was also the father-in-law of the leading actor, Edward Alleyn, and contains many miscellaneous and personal entries. The first edition of Henslowe's Diary, published in 1961, has long been out of print. It provides a thorough introduction to the manuscript, a full transcription of the document itself and several helpful appendices and indexes. For this second edition one of the original editors, R. A. Foakes, has added a new preface and reading list.

From the beginning of the INTRODUCTION - History of the MS.: OF all documents illustrating the external history of the Elizabethan drama the most important that has escaped the ravages of time is undoubtedly the volume of miscellaneous accounts and memoranda commonly known as ''Henslowe''s Diary.'' The volume was first used by a certain John Henslowe for the entry of accounts of the felling and disposal of timber and other matters relating to Ashdown Forest. His accounts belong to the years 1576 to 1581. After this the book appears to have been laid by for some time, for we next find it in use by Philip Henslowe in London early in 1592. By him it was used for the entry of a variety of accounts and memoranda relating both to private affairs and to business transactions, dramatic and other, during the following eighteen years. The latest entry dates from 1609. In the meantime Edward Alleyn, who had married Henslowe''s step-daughter, retired from the stage about 1604, and some ten years later he founded the College of God''s Gift at Dulwich. Into his hands Henslowe''s papers, the Diary among them, passed, presumably on the latter''s death in 1616, and they thus found their way into the library of the College. Here they remained unmolested for more than a century and a half. It was not till 1780 that their existence became known to Edmond Malone, and when he then approached the authorities of Dulwich, the Diary proved to have been mislaid. Shortly before 1790, however, the MS. was discovered and entrusted to Malone, who was then engaged upon his ''Variorum'' edition of Shakespeare. He caused a transcript of such portions as he deemed of importance to be prepared, and of this he printed an abstract in the appendix to the ''History of the Stage'' prefixed to his edition (vol. I pt. ii. p. 288), with the addition of a few other documents from the same source. This transcript was collated with the original by Malone himself, and contains a variety of notes and corrections in his hand. He possibly intended to make more extended use of it in the revised edition of his Shakespeare, for which he spent many years collecting material, but which he left to James Boswell the younger to bring out after his death. Malone, it would appear, kept the original in his possession till his death in 1812, when it was returned to Dulwich by his literary executor." Boswell, however, when he published the revised ''Variorum'' of 1821 (vol. III. p. 295), appears merely to have reprinted the extracts as they stood in Malone''s previous edition, though the transcript was in his possession at the time and appeared in the sale of his books in 1825 (No. 3141). The transcript reappeared in the Heber sale, whence it passed into the possession of Sir Thomas Phillipps, and after his death again came into the market in 1895. On this last occasion it was purchased, on the recommendation of Dr. Warner, by the Governors of Dulwich College, and now forms part of that library. The next person, so far as is known, to make use of the MS. was J. P. Collier, who had recourse to it when engaged on his History of Dramatic Poetry (1831), and reprinted the whole, so far as it relates to dramatic affairs, for the Shakespeare Society in 1845. Since Collier''s edition appeared many scholars have inspected the volume either for the sake of the evidence it supplies concerning the conditions of the Elizabethan drama, or else attracted by the controversy which long raged round certain entries which were alleged to have been forged in it. The volume was described, and a careful though not quite complete list of the forgeries given, by Dr. G. F. Warner in his invaluable Catalogue of the Manuscripts and Muniments of Alleyn''s College of God''s Gift at Dulwich (1881). Finally, at the suggestion of Mr. A. H. Bullen, I applied, in the autumn of 1902, for permission from the Governors of the College to have the MS. temporarily deposited at the British Museum...

Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.
