Ford wrote darkly about sexual and political passion, thwarted ambition, and incest. This selection of four plays also shows his ability to portray the poignancy of love as well as write entertaining comedy and create convincing roles for women. Setting Ford's earliest surviving independently written play, ,The Lover's Melancholy,, alongside his three best-known works, ,The Broken Heart, 'Tis a Pity She's a Whore, , and ,Perkin Warbeck,, this edition includes an introduction with sections on each play, addressing gender issues, modern relevance, and staging possibilities
