Horrorwood: True Crime in TinseltownDrama Duel: Benjamin Jonson vs. Gabriel SpencerWelcome to the life of Benjamin Jonson—widely regarded as the second-best playwright of the Elizabethan era and ALWAYS in competition with Shakespeare. Before rising to literary fame, Jonson was part of the Admiral’s Men acting troupe in London, where he found himself caught in deadly dramas on and offstage. In 1598, he killed actor Gabriel Spencer in a duel—an encounter that turned fatal with a man already known for his violent streak.

Close ReadingsLove and Death: Elegies for children by Ben Jonson, Anne Bradstreet, Geoffrey Hill and Elizabeth BishopThis episode looks at four poems whose subject would seem to lie beyond words: the death of a child. A defining feature of elegy is the struggle between poetic eloquence and inarticulate grief, and in these works by Ben Jonson, Anne Bradstreet, Geoffrey Hill and Elizabeth Bishop we find that tension at its most acute. Mark and Seamus consider the way each poem deals with the traditional demand of the elegy for consolation, and what happens when the form and language of love poetry subverts elegiac conventions.Non-subscribers will only hear an extract from this episode...2025-02-1713 min

Something Shakespeare This Way ComesEp 29: Ben Jonson - Shakespeare's Contemporary, Part 2We’re back with more Ben Jonson! This episode we consider
Jonson’s works, his plays for public and private theater, his poetry, and his relationship with the court.
When it comes to how he conducted his career, was also look at the how he differed from Shakespeare. Not as a point of judgement, but just to give us a more complete picture about what men did with their writing and how this (ironically) makes it more unfair to try to compare them.

Citation NeededBen JonsonBenjamin Jonson (c. 11 June 1572 – c. 16 August 1637)[2] was an English playwright and poet. Jonson's artistry exerted a lasting influence upon English poetry and stage comedy. He popularised the comedy of humours; he is best known for the satirical plays Every Man in His Humour[3] (1598), Volpone, or The Fox (c. 1606), The Alchemist (1610) and Bartholomew Fair (1614) and for his lyric and epigrammatic poetry. "He is generally regarded as the second most important English dramatist, after William Shakespeare, during the reign of James I." Our theme song was written and performed by Anna Bosnick.

Pause For PoetryOn the death of my first son by Ben Jonson | Pause For Poetry Season 1, Episode 12An elegy written for his son who died of the Plague in 1603. Full of anguish, Jonson eschews the traditional form of an elegy and offers little in the way of hope or an end to his emotional suffering. Jonson's comparison between his son and his poems is particularly moving, intrinsically linking Jonson's identiy as an author, his 'fathership' of his poems and his perceived 'authorship' of his son. What can this poem tell us about grief in comparison to other elegies? https://www.poetryfoundation.org/poems/44455/on-my-first-son F...2021-07-0802 min
