Originally published in 1928, this book presents the text of The Alchemist by Ben Jonson. An editorial introduction is included, along with extensive notes. Spelling and punctuation are occasionally modernised and a few passages are omitted, but aside from this the text of William Gifford's 1816 edition is followed.
Ben Jonson (c. 1572-1637) was an English Renaissance dramatist, poet and actor. Gordon Campbell is at University of Leicester.
