More about the book
Beaumont's journey began in a small Leicestershire village, leading him to Oxford at age 13. Following his father's death, he shifted from law to theatre, becoming a student of the influential Ben Jonson. His early works included "Salmacis and Hermaphroditus" and the less successful "The Knight of the Burning Pestle." Notably, he co-created around 15 plays with John Fletcher, marking a significant era in English theatre. Beaumont's legacy is intertwined with royal festivities and the vibrant theatrical landscape of his time before his untimely death.
