Shakespeare's Influence on Mucedorus

Drábek, P; Drabek, Pavel

Abstract

The anonymous Mucedorus (first printed in 1598) was one of the most popular Elizabethan plays. In 1610, the third, reworked edition was published after the play had been performed by Shakespeare's company, the King's Men. This article tries to reconstruct the Shakespearean context of the play; Shakespeare's impact on Mucedorus (first published in 1598) might have been a mere inspiration, or possibly might have bordered on collaboration.
