Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book is an allegorical play that explores the conflict between Liberalism and Profligacy. Originally performed in 1600 for Queen Elizabeth, it was likely written in an earlier era of literary thought. It uses the metaphor of a contest between these opposing ideas and other abstract concepts like Fortune and Virtue. This humanist approach to ethics and morality reflects the thinking of the era and explores ideas relevant to today's readers, such as the tension between austerity and profligacy, charity and waste, and moderation and excess, as these concerns are played out in the lives of the characters.
