• Thomas Nashe's Summer's Last Will and Testament (1592) has been considered to be written as a defense of Elizabethan festive entertainment against attacks from Puritans like Philip Stubbs, well-known author of The Anatomy of Abuses. C. L. Barber's Shakespeare's Festive Comedy (1959') is the foundation of such a viewpoint. However, the real subtext of the play seems to show the declining hospitality in festive occasions rather than defending the festivity itself, because "thrift" and "liberality" is recurrently thematized by the characters in the drama. It is meaningful that the decrease in hospitality is frequently lamented in literary works of the 1590s, when hospitality may have been a social issue of the towns.
