Love Freed from Ignorance and Folly
''Love Freed from Ignorance and Folly'' was a Jacobean era masque, written by Ben Jonson and designed by Inigo Jones, with music by Alfonso Ferrabosco. It was performed on 3 February 1611 at Whitehall Palace, and published in 1616.
''Love Freed from Ignorance and Folly'' proved to be the last masque in which Anne of Denmark, King James I's Queen, performed.
== Background ==
During the previous six years, the English Court of King James I had established a pattern of staging a major (and expensive) masque in the Christmas season, often on Twelfth Night. James's queen, Anne of Denmark, was a prime mover is these entertainments, and repeatedly performed in them herself, as in the masques of ''Blackness'' (1605), ''Beauty'' (1608), and ''Queens'' (1609). 1611 saw a divergence from this pattern: the major masque of that season was ''Oberon, the Faery Prince,'' which starred Anne's and James's eldest son Henry Frederick, Prince of Wales. Anne got a masque of her own a month later, though it was a more modest affair than previous events; while the bills for earlier masques regularly ran into the thousands of pounds, the total for ''Love Freed from Ignorance and Folly'' was only £719.〔Michael Leapman, ''Inigo: The Troubled Life of Inigo Jones, Architect of the English Renaissance,'' London, Headline Book Pyblishing, 2003; p. 83.〕 (Anne's masque had originally been scheduled for December 1610, and then for Twelfth Night, 6 January 1611; it was postponed twice because of delays in the arrival of the French ambassador, in the wake of the assassination of Henri IV.)〔John Leeds Barroll, ''Anne of Denmark, Queen of England: A Cultural Biography,'' Philadelphia, University of Pennsylvania Press, 2001; pp. 127-8.〕
