In the tradition of the Jesuit school theater, Jacob Masen (1606-1681) has long had a reputation as a playwright second only to his countryman Bidermann. With no modern editions of his plays, and translations of the Latin original extremely limited, few readers have had direct access to Masen's theater. It presents in modern English three exemplary Masen plays: Androphilus, Maurice, and Rusticus imperans. A brief introduction places the plays within the context of Masen's life and century, and his theoretical writings on the theater. The book is the only English edition of Masen's plays.
