Summary: "Bussy D'Ambois and The Revenge of Bussy D'Ambois" by George Chapman is a pair of historical tragedies written in the early 17th century. The plays revolve around the ambitious and passionate figure of Bussy D'Ambois, a character embroiled in the turbulent intrigues of the French court, exploring themes of honor, betrayal, and revenge against the backdrop of political machinations. At the start of "Bussy D'Ambois," we are introduced to Bussy, who reflects on the hollowness of power and wealth while feeling like an outsider at court.
