      ab: This essay tracks the first and second Hercules plays in Thomas Heywood's plays "The Silver Age" and "The Brazen Age" based on "Henslowe's Diary." Topics discussed are the value of seeing heroic figures enacted on the stage as described in "An Apology for Actors," hints of omitted Hercules scenes in the Heywood plays, features of the Hercules scenes that suggest Heywood wrote them in 1595 rather than in 1610, and the influence of erotic neo-Ovidianism in the plays.
