Jacobean Tragedy

Okay, I have since found out that I got the mords wixed. I meant John Webster--who was alive from the late 1500s to the early 1600s and may have been a contemporary of Shakespeare. During the reign of King James he wrote a few amazing pieces before disappearing into obscurity. I didn't know this BUT  "The Duchess of Malfi." is all about incest, murder, exhumation and total weirdness. 
            Wanted to correct that. Cheers. Jain
