Edition Notes

"Dramatis personae:" p. [16]

Prologue by Philip Frowde.

Decorative initials, head- and tailpieces.

First acted 13 December 1727 and published 1728.

Statement on verso of half-title page records the granting of 14 year rights to Theobald for Double falshood, a play in manuscript form which he professed to be by Shakespeare.

The possibility of Fletcher as the author is mentioned in the "Preface of the editor" (p. [9-11]) More likely an old play of uncertain authorship recast by Theobald, but by some regarded as entirely his. cf. Cambridge bibliography of English literature. Also attributed to Shirley and others. For discussion of its authorship and connection with the lost "History of Cardenio" ascribed to Shakespeare and Fletcher, cf. Bradford, in Modern language notes, vol. 25 (1910) p. 51-56, and Lounsbury's First editors of Shakespeare, p. 146-152.
