Synopsis
A complete collection of John Wilson’s dramatic works, restored with a thoughtful prefatory memoir and scholarly notes.
This edition gathers Wilson’s plays, long attributed to an Irish judge-turned-writer, along with a prefatory memoir, introductions, and notes that place the works in their late 17th‑century context.

Inside you’ll find the plays, including Andronicus Comnenius, Belphegor, The Cheats, and The Projectors, supplemented by biographical insight and critical notes. The volume aims to illuminate Wilson’s career, the theatrical culture of his time, and the political currents that shaped his writing and reception.
