Witch An inventive retelling of a Jacobean drama, Jen Silverman’s sharp, subversive fable debates how much our souls are worth when hope is hard to come by.

If you are in the Mount Pleasant, MI area, you might want to check out the play Witch by the award winning playwright Jen Silverman Feb 11 - 15. www.cmich.edu/about/2026/0... Such a great script! #witch #folklore #Jacobean #michigan

St Peter, Great, #Walsingham in #Norfolk has an original font with a boldly painted, probably #Jacobean canopy. Built about 650 years ago, the #church still hangs its original three bells, among the oldest complete sets by one founder in #England. #FontsOnFriday

This could be a #Jacobean #RevengeTragedy
'Tis Pity He's a Twink', perhaps, or 'The Georgia Murderers', maybe 'The Roman Politicians' has a certain je ne sais quoi?

ID: Photo of the book’s cover, featuring wrought iron gates against a night sky. A candle burns in the light fitting hanging from one of the stone gateposts, obscuring the moon in a way that makes the candle seem to be lighting up the sky. On the gateposts are classical statues of a woman on one side and a warrior on the other

ID: The book’s cover, showing domestic wrought iron security gates, with a glimpse of the doors they protect. The doors are open, as is the left-hand gate, letting light spill through onto the cobblestones in front of the house. This artfully overexposed light obscures our view into the house

John Chamberlain comes up so often in my Newberry Library course that I've started referring to him as "friend of the pod." #earlymodern #IYKYK #renaissance #tudors #elizabethans #jacobean #17thcentury

Ben Jonson (1572-1637) was a major figure of the #Jacobean #literary scene, second only to #Shakespeare. Known for sharp #comedies like 'Every Man in His Humour'. Jonson was granted a royal pension in recognition of his literary accomplishments, effectively making him #England's first poet laureate.
