Ben Jonson
Every Man In His Humour
Dr. Raghukul Tilak
Ben Jonson has personified the medieval humours in his characters in Every Man In His Humour, performed in 1598 with William Shakespeare in the cast. Kitely personifies jealousy; Edward Knowell’s father’s, humour is excessive solicitude for his son’s morals; Dame Kitely is highly credulous while her sister is easily wooed and won. We also have a cowardly gallant in Bobadill and several poetasters with their ‘humours’ in one of Ben Jonson’s best-known comedies.
This critical study, originally prepared by Dr. Raghukul Tilak, has been thoroughly revised, edited and updated by Prof. Shakti Batra
