His early comedieswith their baroque poetic exuberance  intense theatricality  explosive bursts of humor  and superbly concrete realizations of the dialects of lovecapture as in a chrysalis all that he was to become. They provide a complete inventory of the mind of our greatest writer in the middle of his golden youth.
