''The Two Noble Kinsmen'' is a Jacobean tragicomedy, first published in 1634 and attributed to John Fletcher and William Shakespeare. Its plot derives from "The Knight's Tale" in Geoffrey Chaucer's ''The Canterbury Tales'', which had already been dramatised at least twice before. Formerly a point of controversy, the dual attribution is now generally accepted by the scholarly consensus.〔Erdman and Fogel, ''Evidence for Authorship,'' pp. 486–94; see also pp. 433–35, 467–69.〕 ==Characters== *Theseus, Duke of Athens *Palamon, nephew of the King of Thebes *Arcite, nephew of the King of Thebes *Pirithous, an Athenian general *Artesius, an Athenian captain *Valerius, a noble of Thebes *Six Knights *A Herald *A Jailer *Wooer of the jailer's daughter *A Doctor *Brother of the jailer *Friends of the jailer *A Gentleman *Gerrold, a schoolmaster *Hippolyta, wife of Theseus *Emilia, her sister *Three Queens *Jailer's Daughter *Emilia's Servant *Country Wenches and Women personating Hymen, Boy *A Laborer *Countrymen, Messengers *A Man personating Hymen, Boy *Executioners, Guards, Soldiers, Attendants 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「The Two Noble Kinsmen」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
