Frier Bacon And Frier Bungay: An Acting Version is a play written by Robert Greene in the late 16th century. The play tells the story of two friars, Bacon and Bungay, who are renowned for their knowledge of alchemy and sorcery. Bacon creates a magical brazen head that can answer any question posed to it, but the head ultimately leads to his downfall. Meanwhile, Bungay falls in love with a noblewoman, but their relationship is threatened by a rival suitor. The play is a mix of comedy and tragedy, with themes of love, power, and the dangers of knowledge. This particular version of the play was adapted for the stage in 1905 and includes stage directions and notes for actors.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
