any coherence between these names ?
Richard Brome John Ford
In Shakespeare's -> „The Merry Wives of Windsor“ (Q1/Q2) Master Ford, jealous of Sir John -> Fallstaff, calls himself "Brooke" when disguised. In the First Folio(1623) the name Brook astonishingly was changed to „Broom“.
In the epistle to his „Five New Playes 1653“ by ->Richard Brom (sometimes Broome) a certain A.Brome (his brother?) writes: „… tis not Money, for then I should loose my labour; Tis not praise, for the Author bid me tell you, that, now he [Brome] is dead, he is of Falstaffs minde, and cares not for Honour.

as I lived, I died alive....disgrace upon my name, imprison'd and opprest ...uncertaine where to lead me to my bed...
Is this alle mere coincidence? Or shouldn‘ t one look for any coherence between the texts and name of a disguised „Broom“, between „Falstaff“ , „Shakespeare“ and „ Ford“? (s.also ->.Blog 55)
