Diary of John Manningham

Note 47 — MANNINGHAM'S DIARY.

Reading edition

It seems from remarks of Mr. Hunter, in his Illustrations of Shakspeare, i. 391, that the Italian play here alluded to was not one of those termed the Inganni, of which there are several, but the Ingannati, which, like the Taming of the Shrew, is a play preceded by a dramatic prologue or induction, entitled Comedia del Sacrificio di gli Intronati. There is no separate title-page to the Ingannati, but there are several editions of the Sacrificio di gli Intronati, in which the Ingannati is introduced, printed at Venice in 1537, 1550, and several subsequent years.

Explore with AITake your curiosity a little further.
