Abstract:
The Two Noble Ladies is one of fifteen plays of the MS. Egerton, 1994 collection of the British Museum. A. H. Bullen edited and published several of the plays of the collection; however, The Two Noble Ladies has remained inedited to the present date. The play has some importance in the Elizabethan Age because of its connection with other dramas of the period. The present editor has accepted the challenge, at the suggestion of Dr. Charles E. Walton, of producing an edition of this play, along with an attempt to provide a more specific date for the original production of the drama, wishing that this edition of The Two Noble Ladies may make some humble contribution to the further scholarship of the Elizabethan dramatic period.
