Résumé : "The Costly Whore" by A.H. Bullen is a play that explores themes of morality, redemption, and societal norms. Set in the bustling city of London, the play follows the story of a woman named Moll Frith, who, despite her occupation as a prostitute, possesses a strong sense of independence and resilience. As Moll navigates the challenges of her profession and the judgments of society, she encounters various characters who represent different facets of London life, including merchants, criminals, and members of the upper class. Through her interactions with these characters, Moll confronts questions about the nature of virtue, love, and self-worth. Bullen's play delves into the complexities of human nature and societal expectations, challenging audiences to reconsider their preconceived notions about morality and redemption. With its rich characterizations and thought-provoking themes, "The Costly Whore" offers a compelling exploration of the human condition in the context of Renaissance London.
