Masques And Entertainments is a collection of plays written by the renowned English playwright Ben Jonson. The book includes some of Jonson's most famous works, such as The Masque of Queens, The Masque of Blackness, and The Masque of Oberon. These plays were written during the early 17th century and were performed at courtly events and festivals. The plays are characterized by their elaborate costumes, music, and dance, and were often used to celebrate important events or to entertain royalty. The book provides insight into the cultural and historical context of these performances, as well as the artistic techniques and themes that Jonson employed in his writing. Overall, Masques And Entertainments is a fascinating glimpse into the world of English Renaissance theater and the creative genius of one of its most celebrated playwrights.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
