Sinopsis

''Elizabethan Humors and the Comedy of Ben Jonson'' is a book written by the Stanford University English Club. It is a detailed analysis of the play ''Every Man in His Humor'' by Ben Jonson, which was first performed in 1598 during the Elizabethan era. The book explores the concept of humors, which were a popular belief in the 16th and 17th centuries that the human body was made up of four fluids, or humors, that determined a person?s personality and health. The book examines how Jonson used this concept to create comedic characters in his play, and how he satirized the social and political issues of his time. The book also provides historical context and literary analysis of the play, making it a valuable resource for scholars and students of English literature and theater history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
