其他摘要：The ‘Comedy of a Duke of Ferrara’ is a title of convenience for a lost play associated with the Englische Komödianten in Germany in 1604. It appears to be linked to an extant German play, Tiberius und Annabella , and therefore to John Marston’s The Fawn . This essay discusses a hitherto unnoted reference to the play in English print. The allusion acts as an anchor for all the other records and has implications, not just for the ‘Comedy of a Duke of Ferrara’, but also for Tiberius und Annabella , The Fawn , and — arguably — Shakespeare’s Measure for Measure .
