Rollo Duke of Normandy
''Rollo Duke of Normandy,'' also known as ''The Bloody Brother,'' is a play written in collaboration by John Fletcher, Philip Massinger, Ben Jonson, and George Chapman. The title character is the historical Viking duke of Normandy, Rollo (lived 846-c.931). Scholars have disputed almost everything about the play; but it was probably written sometime in the 1612–24 era and later revised, perhaps in 1630 or after. In addition to the four writers cited above, the names of Nathan Field and Robert Daborne have been connected with the play by individual scholars.
==Performance and publication==
Details of the play's earliest productions are not preserved in the historical record. The play was seen at the Globe Theatre on 13 May 1633,〔G. E. Bentley, "The Diary of a Caroline Theatergoer," ''Modern Philology'' Vol. 35 No. 1 (August 1937), pp. 61–72; see p. 63.〕 and was acted at Hampton Court Palace on 24 January 1637 (new style). It was entered into the Stationers' Register on 4 October 1639 by the booksellers John Crook and Richard Sergier, as the work of "J. B." It was first published later in 1639, in a quarto printed by R. Bishop for John Crook and Thomas Allot, under the title ''The Bloody Brother''. The title page of this quarto attributes the play to "B. J. F." A second quarto appeared in 1640 under the title ''The Tragoedy of Rollo Duke of Normandy'', published at Oxford by stationer Leonard Lichfield, "Printer to the University." Q2 assigns the play to Fletcher, and asserts that it was acted by the King's Men.〔E. H. C. Oliphant, ''The Plays of Beaumont and Fletcher: An Attempt to Determine Their Respective Shares and the Shares of Others,'' New Haven, Yale University Press, 1927; pp. 457–9〕 Q2 appears to derive from a theatre prompt-book, while Q1 shows less sign of direct contact with the stage and is a more "literary" text.〔Terence P. Logan and Denzell S. Smith, eds., ''The Later Jacobean and Caroline Dramatists: A Survey and Bibliography of Recent Studies in English Renaissance Drama,'' Lincoln, NE, University of Nebraska Press, 1978; p. 71.〕 The play was included in the second Beaumont and Fletcher folio of 1679.
