Description

Cynthia's Revels: Or The Fountain Of Self Love is a play written by Ben Jonson, originally published in 1601. The play is a satire on the courtly life of Elizabethan England, and centers around the character of Cynthia, who represents the Queen. The play is set in a mythical world where the goddess Cynthia presides over a court of poets, musicians, and artists. The play follows the story of a group of young courtiers who are obsessed with their own self-love and vanity, and who are constantly trying to outdo each other in their pursuit of fame and fortune. The play is full of witty dialogue, clever wordplay, and social commentary, and is considered one of Jonson's most important works. The 1912 edition of the play includes an introduction by the editor, as well as notes and annotations to help readers understand the historical and cultural context of the play.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
