The Renegado
''The Renegado, or The Gentleman of Venice''〔The play's subtitle also serves as the title of a later play by James Shirley; see ''The Gentleman of Venice.''〕 is a late Jacobean stage play, a tragicomedy written by Philip Massinger and first published in 1630. The play has attracted critical attention for its treatment of cultural conflict between Christian Europe and Muslim North Africa.
Massinger based the plot of his play on a novel by Miguel de Cervantes titled ''Los Baños de Argel,'' which had been printed in 1615.〔Schelling, Vol. 2, p. 231.〕
==Performance and publication==
''The Renegado'' was licensed for performance by Sir Henry Herbert, the Master of the Revels, on 17 April 1624. It was acted at the Cockpit Theatre by the Lady Elizabeth's Men; when that troupe was merged or re-organized into Queen Henrietta's Men in the following year, 1625, the play remained in their repertory. The 1630 quarto was printed by Augustine Matthews for the bookseller John Waterson; it bears commendatory verses, including one by James Shirley. Massinger dedicated his drama to George Harding, 8th Baron Berkeley, a prominent literary patron of the day who was the dedicatee of Burton's ''The Anatomy of Melancholy'' (1621) and Webster's ''The Duchess of Malfi'' (1623), among other works.〔Vitkus, p. 340.〕
The play was revived in 1662, early in the Restoration era.〔Garrett, p. 11.〕
