Ralph Roister Doister is a play written by Nicholas Udall in the 16th century. It is considered to be the first comedy written in the English language. The play follows the story of Ralph Roister Doister, a wealthy and boastful man who is in love with a woman named Dame Custance. However, there are several obstacles in his way, including a rival suitor and the fact that Dame Custance is already engaged to another man. The play is full of humor and satire, poking fun at various aspects of society at the time, including courtship rituals, social class, and gender roles. The characters are all exaggerated and larger-than-life, adding to the comedic effect of the play. Despite being written over 400 years ago, Ralph Roister Doister is still performed and studied today. It is a valuable piece of English literature and an important example of the development of comedy in the English language.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
