	Philip Massinger Collection at Bartleby.com
		He studied at Oxford (1602–6) but left without a degree, apparently to go to London to write plays.
		A prolific writer, Massinger wrote more than 40 plays (often in collaboration).
		He is best known for the comedies A New Way to Pay Old Debts (1625) and The City Madam (1632), in which the gluttony of the two central characters leads to tragic consequences.—continue at Columbia Encyclopedia, Sixth Edition.

	Philip Massinger
		In the prologue Massinger ironically apologizes for his ignorance of history, and professes that his accuracy is at fault if his picture comes near "a late and sad example." The obvious "late and sad example" of a wandering prince could be no other than Charles I's brother-in-law, the elector palatine.
		Massinger died suddenly at his house near the Globe theater, and was buried in the churchyard of St. Saviour's, Southwark, on the 18th of March 1640.
		In Massinger's own judgment The Roman Actor was "the most perfect birth of his Minerva." It is a study of the tyrant Domitian, and of the results of despotic rule on the despot himself and his court.

	Philip Massinger
		Massinger's leaning to Roman doctrine is supposed to be shown by his making one of his heroines--a converted Turk and a sultan's sister--experience complete spiritual transformation after receiving the rite of baptism.
		Lik all Massinger's plays, it is most ingenious and effective in construction, but in this, as in others, he has been more intent upon the elaboration of a plot and the exhibition of a ruling passion than upon winning the love and admiration of his audience for heroes and heroines.
		Among the dramatists of this period, Massinger comes next to Shakespeare in the art of opening and developing a plot, and in this respect the Bondman, the Duke of Milan and the Great Duke of Florence are favorable specimens of his power.

		Massinger seems to have been quite content to leave the risk and the glory to his teacher; so far as we know, he never protested against the omission of his name on the title-pages of the dramas printed during his lifetime.
		We are not able to fix the time when Massinger ventured to present himself as an independent author to the public of the metropolis; but we may assume that this did not happen much before the end of the second decade of the seventeenth century.
		In these letters, Massinger’s prose appears to the greatest advantage; it is, perhaps, a little pompous now and then, but it is clear and perfectly free from Euphuistic tricks of style.

		Massinger, however, was less comfortable with such amalgams of virtue and vice, and with the idea that their greatness in some way exempted them from judgement according to established societal norms.
		Massinger was not, of course, the only seventeenth-century dramatist to write tragedy based on something approximating to a battle between virtues and vices.
		Since Massinger was not the sole practitioner of tragedy involving such antithetical figures, the important issue is the kind of tragic effect produced by this sort of play and its difference from tragedy which results from a flaw in character.

		When Massinger entered the theatrical world of London, which was suffering already from an excess of competition and production, he found established in it a great tradition from whose influence it was impossible for him to escape.
		Undoubtedly, Massinger owed much of his own dramatic cunning to this apprenticeship to Fletcher’s cleverness in all the technicalities of the stage—but this gain could not outweigh the heavy loss in power.
		In reading Massinger’s plays, we often become aware of the contest between two very different forces, his own serious and earnest manner, as it were, wrestling with the injunctions of his master to lay hold of the attention of the audience by any means, however frivolous.

		Massinger's outlook is by no means vague or sceptical on religion or on morals; he is a moralist before all things, and the copy-book tags neatly pinned on to the conclusion of each play are only a somewhat clumsy exhibition of a real conviction and conscientiousness.
		Massinger's bawdry, not always uttered by underlings, is sometimes almost as shocking as that of frankly salacious modern fiction.
		Massinger's temptation scenes are titillating, sometimes scabrous, and his words suggesting the characteristic movement in coitus are extremely coarse.

	Believe What You Will Review by Philip Massinger at RSC at Trafalgar Studios London 2006
		Originally entitled 'Believe What You List', it was ‘considered too dangerous to license’ when Massinger first wrote it because it was based on events that took place some 50 years or so earlier when the King of Portugal was roundly beaten in battle by the Moors.
		Two years later, Portugal was annexed by the Spanish whereupon a number of people presented themselves as the 'lost' King of Portugal, most of whom were captured and executed.
		Rather than consign his work to the 17th century equivalent of the shredder, Massinger re-wrote his play setting it in Asia in the second century BC, with the Romans cast as the political demons.

		With the exception of the scholarly editions of his plays and a handful of essays on the better-known works, Philip Massinger's dramatic output has received very little critical attention in this century.
		The essays come from the leading Massinger scholars and are introduced by a brief biography which places the playwright in the context of early Stuart theatre.
		Four hundred years after his birth this book will show that the hitherto underrated Massinger was the chief dramatist for England's major theatrical company from the death of Fletcher until the closing of the theatres in 1642, and a theatrical poet of major importance.
