‘Epicoene: The Silent Woman’ is a comedic play by Ben Jonson. Morose, a wealthy old man, seeks a wife who is quiet and silent. He plans to disinherit his nephew if he doesn’t marry Epicoene, a supposedly silent woman. However, Epicoene turns out to be a young man in disguise. Chaos erupts as characters scheme to uphold the deception. Jonson’s play humorously critiques societal expectations of gender roles, marriage, and appearances, while exploring the complexities of human relationships and the consequences of deceit.
