(The recorded broadcast of Feb. 9)
Thomas Dekker is believed to have contributed to as many as forty plays in that astonishing era of collaborative dramaturgy around the turn of the seventeenth century, but there survive less than a dozen works of which he can be said to have been the sole or principal author. The Honest Whore is one of them. Thomas Middleton is acknowledged to have had a hand in Part I, but Part 2, altogether more skilfully constructed and felicitously written, is probably Dekker's 'own unaided work.' The two Parts contain virtuaUy the same characters and are almost continuous in time, but each forms a complete play in itself. K. A. H.
