'Tis pitty shee's a whore

"Incest, adultery and revenge take centre stage in John Ford's dramatic account of the sublime and yet destructive power of human passions. Sympathetic yet unflinching in its exploration of sexuality and desire, 'Tis Pity She's a Whore promotes a radical type of pity which seems utterly modern to contemporary readers and audiences. Ford's dramatic originality is embodied in its heroine, Annabella, who defies conventions, domestic violence, and the obsessive and self-centred idealism of her brother and lover, Giovanni. As well as exploring its modernity, Sonia Massai offers an historically informed approach to the play, through which sexuality is viewed as a marker of personal identity, and as a potential threat to social order and the Renaissance ideals of civic and self-rule."--Page 4 of cover.

  • "L'amour incestueux de Giovanni pour sa soeur Annabella, dans la Parme de la Renaissance, choque profondément la famille d'en face, les Soranzo, et tous ceux qui sont soumis à la loi implacable de Dieu. Le tuteur de Giovanni est torturé entre sa foi et la philosophie libérale qu'il enseigne à son élève."

  • "Ford wrote darkly about sexual and political passion, thwarted ambition, and incest. This selection of four plays also shows his ability to portray the poignancy of love as well as write entertaining comedy and create convincing roles for women. Setting Ford's earliest surviving independently written play, The Lover's Melancholy, alongside his three best-known works, The Broken Heart, 'Tis a Pity She's a Whore, and Perkin Warbeck, this edition includes an introduction with sections on each play, addressing gender issues, modern relevance, and staging possibilities. - Publisher."@en
  • "Ford wrote darkly about sexual and political passion, despair, thwarted ambition, and incest. This selection also shows his ability to portray the poignancy of love as well as write entertaining comedy and create convincing roles for women. His Annabella, Hippolita, Penthea, Calantha, and Katherine Gordon rank among the most dramatically powerful female characters on the post-Shakespearean stage. Setting Ford's earliest surviving independently written play, The Lover's Melancholy, alongside his three best-known works, this edition includes an introduction, with sections on each play addressing gender issues, modern relevance, and staging possibilities. Under the General Editorship of Michael Cordner of the University of York, the texts of the plays have been newly edited and are presented with modernized spelling and punctuation, supplemented by detailed annotation."
  • "The last decade has seen a revival of interest in John Ford and especially 'Tis Pity She's a Whore, his tragedy of religious scepticism, incestuous love, and revenge. This text in particular has provided a focus for scholarship as well as being the subject of a number of major theatrical productions. Simon Barker guides the reader through the full range of previous interpretations of the play; moving from an overview of traditional readings he goes on to enlarge upon new questions that have arisen as a consequence of critical and cultural theory."@en
