O knihe
This is an easy-to-read retelling of George Peele's "THE OLD WIVES' TALE." It is a play within a play. An old wife tells a fairy tale to visitors. As she tells the tale, the characters come to life and act out the fairy tale. George Peele was the Elizabethan playwright who wrote these plays: THE ARRAIGNMENT OF PARIS THE BATTLE OF ALCAZAR DAVID AND BATHSHEBA EDWARD I THE OLD WIVES' TALE He also may have co-written TITUS ANDRONICUS with William Shakespeare. BONUS: An easy-to-read retelling in modern English of THE JESTS OF GEORGE PEELE by an anonymous author. In Elizabethan England, a "jest" is a notable deed. Most of the jests depict M. Peele as dissolute; however, one jest - helping an impoverished friend to get supper - may be considered a good deed.
