the start of The Duchess of Malfi

The Duchess of Malfi

The play begins as a love story, with a Duchess who marries beneath her class, and ends as a nightmarish tragedy as her two brothers exact their revenge, destroying themselves in the process.

Jacobean drama continued the trend of stage violence and horror set by Elizabethan tragedy, under the influence of Seneca. The complexity of some of its characters, particularly Bosola and the Duchess, plus Webster’s poetic language, ensure the play is often considered among the greatest tragedies of English renaissance drama.
