The Woman's Prize, or The Tamer Tam'd was written by John Fletcher (1579-1625) as a radical sequel to William Shakespeare's The Taming of the Shrew (c.1590-1592). While Shakespeare's Katherina is subdued by her bullying husband Petruchio, Fletcher turns things on their head by letting women tame men. Fletcher's play is set in London after Katherina's death, and Petruchio is remarried to Maria. However, he still has nightmares that Katharina will haunt him as a ghost and he resolves to be even firmer with his new wife. But instead, Maria defeats him by denying him sex and locking him out of the bedroom

This edition of John Fletcher's The Woman's Prize is based upon the Lambarde Manuscript, held by the Folger Shakespeare Library. The edition is photofacsimile, since it is in a clear hand that requires no corresponding diplomatic transcription. The manuscript includes passages expurgated from the text printed in the Beaumont and Fletcher first folio of 1647. The introduction to the edition considers the provenance, characteristics, and dating of the manuscript, and Henry Herberts censorship of the play for its 1633 revival.

The Tamer Tamed is the subtitle or alternative title to John Fletcher's The Woman's Prize, a comedic sequel and reply to The Taming of the Shrew. The plot switches the gender roles of Shakespeare's play: the women seek to tame the men. Katherine (the "shrew" of the original) has died, and Petruchio takes a second wife, Maria. Maria denounces her former mildness and vows not to sleep with Petruchio until she "turn him and bend him as [she] list, and mold him into a babe again." After many comedic exchanges and plot twists, Petruchio is finally "tamed" in the eyes of Maria, and the play ends with the two reconciled. The play is seen to reflect how society's views of women, femininity, and "domestic propriety" were beginning to change. It is said that Fletcher wrote this play to attract Shakespeare's attention - the two went on to collaborate on at least three plays together. This brand new New Mermaid edition offers unique and fresh insight into the critical interpretation of the play. It builds on current critical foundations (the relationship with Taming of the Shrew, gender relations etc) and suggests different areas of interest (popular associations of the shrew, the question of reputation, and a re-examination of the play's structure). as well as examining stage history and recent productions.

"The Woman's Prize" by Francis Beaumont is a comedic play that delves into themes of love, marriage, and gender roles in Jacobean England. Written during the early 17th century, this work is a sequel to Beaumont's earlier play, "The Woman Hater." In "The Woman's Prize," the story revolves around Morose, a misanthropic man who is determined to remain unmarried. However, Morose's resolve is tested when his former wife, Livia, returns to reclaim him. Despite Morose's resistance, Livia and her allies engage in a series of schemes and manipulations to win him back. Central to the play is the exploration of gender dynamics and the power struggles within marriage. Through witty dialogue and comedic situations, Beaumont highlights the complexities of romantic relationships and the challenges faced by both men and women in navigating societal expectations. "The Woman's Prize" offers a humorous and satirical commentary on the institution of marriage, as well as the roles and expectations placed on individuals based on their gender. With its lively characters and entertaining plot, Beaumont's play continues to entertain audiences and provoke thought about the timeless themes it addresses.

WINNER OF THE 2021 WOMEN'S PRIZE FOR FICTION A Sunday Times & New York Times bestseller The spectacular new novel from the bestselling author of JONATHAN STRANGE & MR NORRELL, 'one of our greatest living authors' (NEW YORK MAGAZINE) __________________________________ Piranesi lives in the House. Perhaps he always has. In his notebooks, day after day, he makes a clear and careful record of its wonders: the labyrinth of halls, the thousands upon thousands of statues, the tides that thunder up staircases, the clouds that move in slow procession through the upper halls. On Tuesdays and Fridays Piranesi sees his friend, the Other. At other times he brings tributes of food to the Dead. But mostly, he is alone. Messages begin to appear, scratched out in chalk on the pavements. There is someone new in the House. But who are they and what do they want? Are they a friend or do they bring destruction and madness as the Other claims? Lost texts must be found; secrets must be uncovered. The world that Piranesi thought he knew is becoming strange and dangerous. The Beauty of the House is immeasurable; its Kindness infinite. __________________________________ 'What a world Susanna Clarke conjures into being ... Piranesi is an exquisite puzzle-box' DAVID MITCHELL 'It subverts expectations throughout ... Utterly otherworldly' GUARDIAN 'Piranesi astonished me. It is a miraculous and luminous feat of storytelling' MADELINE MILLER 'Brilliantly singular' SUNDAY TIMES 'A gorgeous, spellbinding mystery ... This book is a treasure, washed up upon a forgotten shore, waiting to be discovered' ERIN MORGENSTERN 'Head-spinning ... Fully imagined and richly evoked' TELEGRAPH
