{"product_id":"the-collected-works-of-john-ford-volume-iv","title":"The Collected Works of John Ford Volume IV","description":"\u003cp\u003eVolume IV of the Collected Works of John Ford is the first of two volumes in the series to contain his sole-authored plays. It contains three of his most celebrated plays: 'Tis Pity She's a Whore (1622), The Lovers' Melancholy (1628), and The Broken Heart (1629), as well as the less well-known The Queen (1629). The volume opens with a general introduction to Ford's work as a sole author by Sir Brian Vickers and each play is given a detailed introduction emphasizing Ford's linguistic creativity and his effective use of the indoor private theatres. Authoritative old-spelling texts, freshly edited from the original quartos with full textual collations, are accompanied by a full commentary on all aspects of the plays, from archaic or obsolete words to classical allusions and historical references to people, places, and social customs.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Brian Vickers","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43575247962173,"sku":"9780192865618","price":448.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0597\/7689\/2989\/files\/9780192865618.jpg?v=1788561126","url":"https:\/\/www.palmleaf.com.au\/products\/the-collected-works-of-john-ford-volume-iv","provider":"Palmleaf","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
