Prologue to Mary Queen of Scots by Mr Fawkener
A compact critique of modern tragic drama as it treats Mary Queen of Scots. The prologue argues that fiction misleads audiences with fake sorrows and foreign styles and praises the English author’s homegrown art and justice for Mary. It contrasts Elizabethan policy, gender politics, and national virtue, urging enlightened sympathy for Mary’s fate.
