GORBODUC

This article appears in Volume V12, Page 246 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: GOA-GRA
GORBODUC , a mythical king of Britain. He gave his kingdom away during his lifetime to his two sons, Ferrex and Porrex. The two quarrelled and the younger stabbed the elder. Their
mother
 , loving the latter most, avenged his death by murdering her son, and the people, horrified at her act, revolted and murdered both her and King Gorboduc. This legend was the subject of the earliest
regular
  English tragedy which in 1561 was played before Queen Elizabeth in the Inner Temple
hall
 . It was written by
Thomas
  Sackville, Lord Buckhurst and
Thomas
 
Norton
  in collaboration. Under the title of Gorboduc it was published first very corruptly in 1565, and in better form as The Tragedy of Ferrex and Porrex in 1570.
