From: Ken Steele (ksteele@epas.utoronto.ca) Date: 05/03/92
Shakespeare Electronic Conference, Vol. 3, No. 98. Sunday, 3 May 1992. Date: Wed, 29 Apr 1992 21:18:00 -0400 From: <sas14%psuvm.bitnet@utcs> Subject: Spurious works! I have here a book entitled THE SHAKESPEARE APOCRYPHA, being a collection of fourteen plays which have been ascribed to Shakespeare. [Spurious and doubtfull works.] ed., with introduction, notes and bibliography, by C.F. Tucker Brooke. Oxford, Clarendon Press, 1918. Arden of Feversham Locrine Edward III Mucedorus Sir John Oldcastle Thomas, lord Cromwell The London prodigal The Puritan A Yorkshire tragedy The Merry Devil of Edmonton Fair Em The Two Noble Kinsmen The Birth of Merlin Sir Thomas More. I know at least two of them have been produced. My questions are: 1) Has anyone ever seen any of these plays produced (or been involved in pro- ducing them? 2) Does anyone have any thoughts on these as viable, stageable works? Stephen A. Schrum Penn State University, Hazleton
