Mirror for Magistrates, A, a work planned by George Ferrers, Master of the King's Pastimes in the reign of Henry VIII, and William Baldwin of Oxford. In it various famous men and women, most of them characters in English history, recount their downfall in verse. The book was originally begun as a continuation of
Lydgate's The Fall of Princes, itself based on
Boccaccio's De Casibus. After a suppressed edition of ?1554 it first appeared in 1559, containing 20 tragedies by various authors. In the enlarged edition of 1563 T.
Sackville contributed the ‘Induction’ and the ‘Complaint of Buckingham’.
The
Mirror was one of the major achievements of what C. S. Lewis called the ‘
Drab Age’, and provided source material for many major writers, including
Spenser, Shakespeare,
Daniel, and
Drayton.
