Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - The Astrologer: A Comedy is a play written by James Ralph and first performed in 1744. The story follows the character of Balderdash, an astrologer who uses his knowledge of the stars to manipulate those around him. He convinces a wealthy merchant, Sir Timothy Treatall, to invest in a risky business venture and also tries to win the heart of a young woman named Belinda. However, his plans are foiled by the arrival of a rival astrologer and a series of misunderstandings and mishaps. The play is a satirical commentary on the popular belief in astrology during the 18th century, and also touches on themes of greed, deception, and love.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.…

[144]pp, signed A-I8. 8vo. Paper aging, titlepage a little dusted, faint ownership inscription dated 1895. Contemporary calf, 19th century reback, red morocco label; joints & board edges rubbed, some wear to head & tail of spine. 19th century endpapers & pastedowns. ESTC R23455. A popular allegorical play, with detailed directions on costume indicating that it must have been handsomely staged, but in front of which monarch is still debated. The play is concerned with the civil strife in Microcosmos in which the five 'exterior senses' are arrayed against Queen Psyche and her counsellors, the three 'interior senses.' Lingua, anonymously published in 1607, went through seven editions prior to the Restoration. 'G. C. Moore Smith supported 1602 as a possible date for the composition of Lingua, on the theory that a compliment to Queen Psyche is really meant for Queen Elizabeth; however, other critics do not find this evidence convincing. There is also another myth, that Oliver Cromwell acted in Lingua, his young nephew performing the role of Small Beer. This led F.G. Fleay to suggest that the play formed part of Cromwell's entertainments for King James at Hinchinbrook on 279 April 1603. There is no evidence, however, to suggest that this was the case. A third theory, proposed by Frederick Boas, dated the play later, to shortly before the time of publication, because of certain similarities with passages in Macbeth.' (Ref: D.N.B.).…
