Mortimer His Fall

''Mortimer His Fall'' (published 1641) is an unfinished history play by Ben Jonson, about the overthrow of Roger Mortimer, 1st Earl of March, who had become ''de facto'' ruler of England in 1327 with Isabella of France after deposing and murdering Isabella's husband Edward II of England.
The existing text of ''Mortimer His Fall,'' was printed in the 1640-1 edition of Jonson's complete works. The text comprises the "argument", or plot summary of the intended five acts, along with the complete first scene and part of the second. The complete scene is a soliloquy by Mortimer in which he is portrayed, "in the 'Machiavel' tradition", as a scheming villain. The fragmentary scene is the beginning of a dialogue between Mortimer and Queen Isabella.〔Irving Ribner, ''The English History Play in the Age of Shakespeare'', Princeton University Press, Princeton, NJ, 1957, p.292.〕

Jonson's other historical tragedies were all written in the period 1602-4, and it has been argued that ''Mortimer'' may be identical to the play "Mortymore", referred to by Philip Henslowe in 1602, for which Henslowe provided "ij sewtes a licke" (two suits alike).〔Felix E. Schelling, ''The English Chronicle Play: A Study in the Popular Historical Literature Environing Shakespeare'', Macmillan Company, New York, 1902, p.142.〕 However, it is generally believed that the work was a very late one, left unfinished at his death in 1637.〔James Loxley, ''The Complete Critical Guide to Ben Jonson'', Routledge, New York, 2001, p.99.〕 The published version states "he dyed and left it unfinished". William Gifford described it as "the last draught of Jonson's quill".〔David Riggs, ''Ben Jonson: A Life'', Harvard University Press, 1989, p.346.〕
