Mucedorus
the PG Shakespeare Team, a team of about twenty Project Gutenberg volunteers
"Mucedorus" by Shakespeare is a comedic play likely written during the late 16th century, a time marked by the flourishing of English literature and drama. As a romantic comedy, the story revolves around themes of love, valor, and the contrast between social classes. It explores the adventures of Mucedorus, a prince disguised as a shepherd, and Amadine, the king’s daughter, as they navigate the trials of love and the interference of jealous suitors in a festive yet challenging environment. The play begins with Mucedorus and his friend Anselmo leaving the court of Valencia to pursue Amadine, the object of Mucedorus's affections. Throughout their journey, they encounter a series of comedic conflicts, including a dangerous bear, a cowardly noble suitor, and a wild man named Bremo who seeks to capture Amadine. The story unfolds with Mucedorus heroically saving Amadine from peril, leading to unraveling truths about their identities and desires. Ultimately, the characters must navigate their relationships and identities, culminating in a dance of romance and reconciliation, as Mucedorus's true royal identity is revealed, and he wins Amadine’s love against the backdrop of comedic misunderstandings and the machinations of jealous rivals.
