PHILIP (d. 1616) , See also:English theatrical manager, was the son of See also:Edmund Henslowe of Lindfield, See also:Sussex, See also:master of the See also:game in Ashdown See also:Forest and Broil See also:Park. He was originally a servant in the employment of the See also:bailiff to See also:Viscount Montague, whose See also:property included Montague See also:House in See also:Southwark, and his duties led him to See also:settle there before 1577. He subsequently married the bailiff's widow, and, with the See also:fortune he got with her, he See also:developed into a See also:clever business See also:man and became a consider-able owner of Southwark property. He started his connexion with the See also:stage when, on the 24th of See also:March 1584, he bought See also:land near what is now the See also:southern end of Southwark See also:Bridge, on which stood the Little See also:Rose playhouse, afterwards rebuilt as the Rose. Successive companies played in it under Henslowe's See also:financial management between 1592 and 1603. The See also:theatre at Newington Butts was also under him in 1594. A See also:share of the See also:control in the See also:Swan theatre, which like the Rose was on the Bankside, See also:fell to Henslowe before the See also:close of the 16th See also:century. With the actor See also:Edward See also:Alleyn, who married his step-daughter See also:Joan See also:Woodward, he built in See also:Golden See also:Lane, Cripplegate Without, the Fortune Playhouse, opened in See also:November 1600. In See also:December of 1594, they had secured the See also:Paris See also:Garden, a See also:place for See also:bear-baiting, on the Bankside, and in 1604 they bought the See also:- OFFICE (from Lat. officium, " duty," " service," a shortened form of opifacium, from facere, " to do," and either the stem of opes, " wealth," " aid," or opus, " work ")
office of master of the royal game of bears, bulls and mastiffs from the holder, and obtained a patent. Alleyn sold his share to Henslowe in See also:February 161o, and three years later Henslowe formed a new See also:partnership with See also:Jacob See also:Meade and built the See also:Hope playhouse,
designed for stage performances as well as See also:bull and bear-baiting, and managed by Meade.
In Henslowe's theatres were first produced many plays by the famous Elizabethan dramatists. What'is known as " Henslowe's See also:Diary " contains some accounts referring to Ashdown Forest between 1576 and 1581, entered by See also:John Henslowe, while the later entries by Philip Henslowe from 1592 to 1609 are those which throw See also:light on the theatrical matters of the See also:- TIME (0. Eng. Lima, cf. Icel. timi, Swed. timme, hour, Dan. time; from the root also seen in " tide," properly the time of between the flow and ebb of the sea, cf. O. Eng. getidan, to happen, " even-tide," &c.; it is not directly related to Lat. tempus)

time, and which have been subjected to much controversial See also:criticism as a result of injuries done to the See also:manuscript. " Henslowe's Diary " passed into the hands of Edward Alleyn, and thence into the Library of See also:Dulwich See also:College, where the manuscript remained intact for more than a See also:hundred and fifty years. In 178o See also:Malone tried to See also:borrow it, but it had been mislaid; in 1790 it was discovered and given into his See also:charge. He was then at See also:work on his Variorum See also:Shakespeare. Malone had a transcript made of certain portions, and collated it with the See also:original; and this transcript, with various notes and corrections by Malone, is now in the Dulwich Library. An abstract of this transcript he also published with his Variorum Shakespeare. The MS. of the diary was eventually returned to the library in 1812 by Malone's executor. In 184o it was See also:- LENT (0. Eng. lenclen, " spring," M. Eng. lenten, lente, lent; cf. Dut. lente, Ger. Lenz, " spring," 0. H. Ger. lenzin, lengizin, lenzo, probably from the same root as " long " and referring to " the lengthening days ")
lent to J. P. See also:Collier, who in 1845 printed for the Shakespeare Society what purported to be a full edition, but it was afterwards shown by.G. F. See also:Warner (See also:Catalogue of the Dulwich Library, 1881) that a number of forged interpolations have been made, the responsibility for which rests on Collier.
The complicated See also:history of the forgeries and their detection has been exhaustively treated in See also:Walter W. See also:Greg's edition of Henslowe's Diary (See also:London, 19o4; enlarged 1908).
