Abstract

Abstract:

The manuscript play Dick of Devonshire has been attributed to several early modern dramatists, including Thomas Heywood, Robert Davenport, James Shirley, and Thomas Dekker. Identifying the author is important to obtaining a better understanding of the play's place in the Caroline commercial theater industry and how it came to be staged by Queen Henrietta Maria's Men in the summer of 1626. This article reviews the arguments that have been made for and against the various authorial candidates and, using historical and literary evidence as well as new computational analysis, establishes that Thomas Heywood is the play's most likely author.

摘要：手稿剧本《德文郡的迪克》被认为是几位早期现代戏剧家的作品，包括托马斯-海伍德、罗伯特-达文波特、詹姆斯-雪莉和托马斯-德克尔。要更好地了解该剧在加洛林商业戏剧业中的地位，以及它是如何在 1626 年夏天由亨丽埃塔-玛丽亚女王的手下上演的，确定作者非常重要。本文回顾了支持和反对各种作者候选者的论点，并利用历史和文学证据以及新的计算分析，确定托马斯-海伍德（Thomas Heywood）是该剧最有可能的作者。
