And men may justly impute such rages, if continued, to the writer, as his sports. The increase of which lust in liberty, together with the present trade of the stage, in all their miscelline interludes, what learned or liberal soul doth not already abhor? where nothing but the filth of the time is uttered, and with such impropriety of phrase, such plenty of solecisms, such dearth of sense, so bold prolepses, so racked metaphors, with brothelry, able to violate the ear of a pagan, and blasphemy, to turn the blood of a Christian to water. I cannot but be serious in a cause of this nature, wherein my fame, and the reputation of divers honest and learned are the question; when a name so full of authority, antiquity, and all great mark, is, through their insolence, become the lowest scorn of the age; and those men subject to the petulancy of every vernaculous orator, that were wont to be the care of kings and happiest monarchs. This it is that hath not only rapt me to present indignation, but made me studious heretofore, and by all my actions, to stand off from them; which may most appear in this my latest work, which you, most learned Arbitresses, have seen, judged, and to my crown, approved; wherein I have laboured for their instruction and amendment, to reduce not only the ancient forms, but manners of the scene, the easiness, the propriety, the innocence, and last, the doctrine, which is the principal end of poesie, to inform men in the best reason of living. And though my catastrophe may, in the strict rigour of comic law, meet with censure, as turning back to my promise; I desire the learned and charitable critic, to have so much faith in me, to think it was done of industry: for, with what ease I could have varied it nearer his scale (but that I fear to boast my own faculty) I could here insert. But my special aim being to put the snaffle in their mouths, that cry out, We never punish vice in our interludes, etc., I took the more liberty; though not without some lines of example, drawn even in the ancients themselves, the goings out of whose comedies are not always joyful, but oft times the bawds, the servants, the rivals, yea, and the masters are mulcted; and fitly, it being the office of a comic poet to imitate justice, and instruct to life, as well as purity of language, or stir up gentle affections; to which I shall take the occasion elsewhere to speak.

This tragic masterpiece by English playwright Ben Jonson explores the life of Roman soldier Lucius Aelius Seianus, who was a close friend and confidant of the emperor TIberius. After a public performance of the play at the Globe theater, Jonson was accused of treason, as some believed the play to be a commentary on political events in England.

A well-known English playwright and poet of the 17th century, Ben Jonson wrote the humorous drama "Every Man in His Humour." The play, which is set in London, has a varied ensemble of individuals in a number of hilarious and sarcastic scenarios. A character's "humour," which refers to their major personality attribute or temperament, differs depending on who they are. Jonson expertly captures the follies and eccentricities of human nature via clever conversation, mistaken identities, and humorous miscommunications. The comedy "Every Man in His Humour" makes fun of the social mores, ambitions, and pretenses of the day. It paints a realistic and engaging picture of Elizabethan life, complete with recognizable class distinctions, efforts to assimilate, and social mobility. The drama examines themes of self-discovery, change, and the negative effects of having lofty goals and aspirations. It illustrates the absurd results that occur when people attempt to change who they are in order to fit in, which eventually results in mayhem and bewilderment. "Every Man in His Humour" is an important work of English literature that demonstrates Ben Jonson's skill for character development, razor-sharp humor, and social satire.

English writer Ben Jonson created the satirical comedy drama "Volpone; Or, The Fox." One of Jonson's most important pieces, it was originally performed in 1605. The drama examines issues of greed, trickery, and the corrupting effects of money and power. Volpone is a rich Venetian magnifico who pretends to have a fatal sickness in order to entice different unscrupulous people who want to acquire his money. Volpone is the protagonist of the narrative. Volpone's deft ploy starts a chain of events including complex schemes, impersonations, and manipulation. His major helper in carrying out his tricks is a smart servant by the name of Mosca. Jonson mocks the vices and follies of Venetian society throughout the play, especially its preoccupation with money and material wealth. The people that surround Volpone, such as the attorneys, businessmen, and legacy seekers, are represented as being morally bankrupt and corrupt. They flatter one other and engage in complicated plots because they want Volpone's fortune.

TO THE NOBLEST NURSERIES OF HUMANITY AND LIBERTY IN THE KINGDOM THE INNS OF COURT I UNDERSTAND you, Gentlemen, not your houses: and a worthy succession of you, to all time, as being born the judges of these studies. When I wrote this poem, I had friendship with divers in your societies; who, as they were great names in learning, so they were no less examples of living. Of them, and then, that I say no more, it was not despised. Now that the printer, by a doubled charge, thinks it worthy a longer life than commonly the air of such things doth promise, I am careful to put it a servant to their pleasures, who are the inheritors of the first favour born it. Yet, I command it lie not in the way of your more noble and useful studies to the public: for so I shall suffer for it. But when the gown and cap is off, and the lord of liberty reigns, then, to take it in your hands, perhaps may make some bencher, tincted with humanity, read and not repent him. By your true honourer, BEN JONSON.

In the late sixteenth century, English playwright Ben Jonson revitalized an ancient style of comedic theater known as "comedy of humours." Drawing on the theory that each person has a particular trait - or "humour" - that defines their personality and perspective, Every Man in His Humour explores what happens when people with diametrically opposed humours are forced to interact with each other.

Ben Jonson's 'Discoveries' are, as he says in the few Latin words prefixed to them, 'A wood - Sylva - of things and thoughts, which has for its first meaning material, but is also applied peculiarly to kinds of wood, and to a wood, 'from the multiplicity and variety of the material contained in it. For, as we are commonly used to call the infinite mixed multitude of growing trees a wood, so the ancients gave the name of Sylvæ - Timber Trees - to books of theirs in which small works of various and diverse matter were promiscuously brought together.' In this little book we have some of the best thoughts of one of the most vigorous minds that ever added to the strength of English literature. The songs added are a part of what Ben Jonson called his 'Underwoods.'

""The Travels of Marco Polo: The Venetian"" is a historical book written by Ben Jonson that highlights the journey of Marco Polo, a Venetian merchant, who traveled through Asia for over 24 years during the 13th century.

Throughout the book, Jonson describes Polo's journey through various countries, including China, India, Persia, and Mongolia.
