John of Bordeaux

John Of Bordeaux

John of Bordeaux, or The Second Part of Friar Bacon is an Elizabethan era stage play, the anonymous sequel to Robert Greene's Friar Bacon and Friar Bungay.

The play was never printed in its own historical era, and survived in a single, untitled, defective manuscript until it was named and published in 1936. On general considerations it is usually dated to the 1590–94 period, or shortly after the success of Greene's original Friar Bacon.
