The presence of a maze in an early masque, Beauty (1608), and in a second from Jonson's middle period, Pleasure Reconciled (1618), would be balanced by a third in the late masque Love's Triumph through Callipolis (1631). Resonances can be found in Orgel, 59: "All representations,' wrote Ben Jonson, 'especially those of this nature in court, public spectacles, either have been or ought to be the mirrors of man's life'" (Loves Triumph through Callipolis, lines 1-3). 31) And we still find possible traces of the furori in one of Jonson's latest masques, Love's Triumph Through Callipolis, performed in 1631 shortly before his quarrel with Inigo Jones. |
