This book is a collection of three plays by John Crowne. 'Juliana' is a tragicomedy about a love triangle involving a king, his wife, and her lover. 'The History of Charles the Eighth of France' is a history play about the French king's invasion of Italy. 'Calisto' is a comedy about a love affair between the goddess Diana and a mortal man. These plays are examples of Crowne's skill as a playwright and offer a glimpse into the theatrical world of the late 1600s and early 1700s.
