Robert Macaire, or, the Exploits of a Gentleman at Large
by Maria Serena Marchesi and John Baldwin Buckstone
Critical edition of an unpublished anonymous play, first performed at the Adelphi Theatre (London) in 1835, now for the first time attributed to John Baldwin Buckstone. In the Introduction Marchesi traces the origins of the myth of Robert Macaire and its literary rewritings, discusses Buckstone’s version in the framework of his oeuvre, and provides a detailed historical reconstruction of the first production of the play in its context.
