Marston, Rivalry, Rapprochement, and Jonson

Investigates significant and unexplored signs of John Marston's literary rivalry with Ben Jonson. This book argues that the anonymous play "The Family of Love", sometimes attributed to Thomas Middleton and sometimes to Lording Barry, was in part the work of John Marston, and that it constitutes a whimsical statement of amity with Jonson.
