At present

So far our database consists of over 4000 allusions to France and the French found in some 200 plays of the period. A particular emphasis has been put on major authors (with a few exceptions). This does not mean of course that the work of lesser known dramatists or that of anonymous authors will be left aside. We have had to set ourselves a number of priorities however and one of these was to work first on the drama of those authors who were better known to the general public.

At present, the dramatic works of the following authors are either completed or nearing completion (for an updated list of all the plays and authors please access the database):

Richard Brome, George Chapman, Robert Greene, Ben Jonson, Thomas Kyd, Thomas Lodge, Christopher Marlowe, John Marston, Thomas Middleton, George Peele, William Shakespeare, James Shirley, John Webster.

 

 
 

Prospects

In the near future we would also like to include early Tudor and early Elizabethan playwrights, minor Elizabethan and Jacobean plays, as well as the dramatic works of Ford, Dekker, Heywood, Beaumont and Fletcher, Massinger and Field.
If you are currently working on any of the above dramatists and would like to make a contribution to the project please consult our Joining the project section.
