1910 William SHAKESPEARE Merry Wives of Windsor Comedy HUGH THOMSON Illustrated This edition of Shakespeare s famous comedy, The Merry Wives of Windsor is given new life with the artistic flair of Hugh Thomson, whose 40 color plates greatly enrich the story s presentation. Set in Windsor, England, the play revolves around the humorous misadventures of Sir John Falstaff, a character originating in Shakespeare s Henry IV plays, as he attempts to court two married women. Written by Shakespeare around 1597, this work diverges from historical narratives, focusing instead on Elizabethan middle-class life. The play holds a unique place in literary history, rumored to have been penned at Queen Elizabeth I s behest to see Falstaff in a romantic light.
