- Summary:
- 'The Merry Wives of Windsor' was almost certainly required at short notice for a court occasion, the Garter Feast of 1597. In his introduction to this warm-hearted 'citizen comedy', T.W. Craik discusses the play's relationship to Shakespeare's English history plays and its textual background.
