The Life and Poems of William Cartwright
Originally published in 1918, this book contains an annotated edition of the poems of William Cartwright (1611-43) as arranged in the order in which they appear in the 1651 edition of his works. Goffin prefaces the collection with an autobiography of Cartwright that sets him in the context of his time. This book will be of value to anyone with an interest in English literature and pre-Civil War poetry.
Music in English Renaissance Drama
Nowhere is the richness and variety of the English Renaissance better shown than in the dramatic works of the period which combined to an unusual degree the arts of poetry, music, acting, and dance. This collection of essays by a number of distinguished scholars offers a series of views of the music of this drama—ranging from the mystery cycles still performed in the late sixteenth century to the cavalier drama of the early seventeenth. The essays included here are mainly concerned with the minor dramatic forms—the mystery plays, the "entertainments," the masques, and the works of such playwrights as Marston and Cartwright—which reveal more extensively the blending of music and drama; and they illustrate a variety of approaches to the dramatic art. The collection as a whole demonstrates the need for an interdisciplinary consideration of this important area of study. Of especial value to musicologists is the bibliography of extant music used in dramatic works of the period.
