Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from When You See Me, You Know Me Samuel Rowley shares the fate of many minor poets of the Elizabethan age, of whose lives no record has reached us. We know nothing of him except that he was ´Servant to the Prince´, i. e. Prince Henry, and that he probably died between 1632 and 1634. The former fact he states himself on the title of his Chronicle-History ´When you see me, you know me´ while the latter circumstance, overlooked hitherto by the bibliographers, is to be collected from the Publisher´s preface to his tragedy of ´The Noble Soldier´ (1634), where this play is termed a ´Posthumous.´ The last quarto of ´When you see me, you know me´ (1632) has no publisher´s or printer´s preface, which was usual only in posthumous publications, and was therefore most probably published in the life-time of the author. Besides these two printed plays of Samuel Rowley Mr. Halliwell in his Dictionary of Old English Plays enumerates six manuscript ones, the titles of which are almost all taken from Sir Henry Herbert´s manuscript diary. They are: 1. Judas, written by Samuel Rowley and William Borne and acted in 1601. 2. Sampson, a play, by Edward Jubye, assisted by Samuel Rowley. Acted in 1602. 3. Joshua, acted by the Lord Admirals Servants, 1602. ´Not now known,´ adds Mr. Halliwell. 4. Hymen´s Holiday; or, Cupid´s Fayaries (sic!), acted at Court in 1612, and revived with some alterations, before the king and queen at Whitehall, 1633.
