This 'lamentable and true tragedy', as it is announced on its title page, dramatises a domestic murder of the sort that nowadays scandalises and thrills the readers of tabloid newspapers. Although the title advertises 'the great malice and dissimulation of a wicked woman' and her 'unsatiable desire of filthie lust', the unknown playwright with great dramatic skill and psychological insight manages to balance the motivations of all the main characters. Thomas Arden, one of the rapacious landlords so reviled in mid-Elizabethan social drama, was murdered at his own house in Faversham, Kent, in 1551. His murderers, it turned out, had been hired by his wife Alice, thrall to Mosby, who hoped to rise socially by marrying a rich widow. As the introduction to this edition shows, sexual and material covetousness is the central theme running through the play, which is commonly rated 'unquestionably the best of all Elizabethan domestic tragedies'.

評分(Edited by M. L. White, Methuen, London, 1973 注釋質量不高,導言尚可) 雖然流傳下來的印本質量堪憂導緻細節甚至主要情節不閤情理之處略多,而Renaissance English drama本身的時間性和空間性又比較模糊(或者說是與現代觀念不同), 但就劇情復雜性和精彩程度而言不愧為非亞裏士多德悲劇模式的domestic tragedy的開山之作。地方史料之中那個階級鬥爭意味明顯的凶殺被改編成瞭一個由欲望和愚蠢編織的一齣鬧劇—悲劇。一方麵這部劇可能揭示瞭婚姻傢庭和地方社會中階級矛盾的尖銳和微觀層麵上無組織階級鬥爭失敗的必然,另一方麵反映瞭婚姻圍城中女性毫無能動性的悲慘和麵對齣軌所給予的越軌能動性麵前的愚昧。
