Mermaid Series The Mermaid Series was a major collection of reprints of texts from English Elizabethan , Jacobean and Restoration drama . It was launched in 1887 by the British publisher Henry Vizetelly and under the general editorship of Havelock Ellis . Around 1894 the series was taken over by the London firm of T. Fisher Unwin. Many well-known literary figures edited or introduced the texts. Some of the plays published had not been reprinted in recent editions, and most had dropped out of the stage repertoire. The name alludes to the Mermaid Tavern in London. There has been a later New Mermaids Series.Notes by John Strachey , two volumes The Maid's Tragedy - Philaster - The Wild Goose Chase - Thierry and Theodoret - The Knight of the Burning Pestle A King and No King - Bonduca - The Spanish Curate - The Faithful Shepherdess - Valentinian Edited by William Lyon Phelps All Fools - Bussy D'Ambois - The Revenge of Bussy D'Ambois - The Conspiracy of Charles, Duke of Byron - The Tragedy of Charles, Duke of Byron The Complete Plays of William Congreve ">William Congreve (playwright)">William Congreve Edited by Alexander Charles Ewald The Old Bachelor - The Double-Dealer - Love for Love - The Way of the World - The Mourning Bride The Best Plays of Thomas Dekker ">Thomas Dekker (poet)">Thomas Dekker Notes by Ernest Rhys The Shoemaker's Holiday - The Honest Whore - Old Fortunatus - The Witch of Edmonton Edited by George Saintsbury , two volumes Almanzor and Almahide, or The Conquest of Grenada, parts 1 & 2 - Marriage A La Mode - Aureng-Zebe All for Love - The Spanish Friar - Albion and Albanius - Don Sebastian Edited by William Archer The Constant Couple - The Twin-Rivals - The Recruiting Officer - The Beaux' Stratagem The Best Plays of John Ford ">John Ford (dramatist)">John Ford Edited by Havelock EllisThe Lover's Melancholy - 'Tis Pity She's a Whore - The Broken Heart - Love's Sacrifice - Perkin Warbeck The Complete Plays of Robert Greene ">Robert Greene (16th century)">Robert Greene Edited by Thomas H.
