Jonson's works, his satires are some of his most well-known, even today. Every Man in His Humour was written in 1598 and was the first of his many "humour plays". ... Though the humours are an essential theme to the play, Jonson's deeper love of parodying his own culture is also shown in Every Man in His Humour.

(2) 2nd work,

Epicœne, or The Silent Woman, also known as Epicene, is a comedy by Renaissance playwright Ben Jonson. The play is about a man named Dauphine who creates a scheme to get his inheritance from his uncle Morose. The plan involves setting Morose up to marry Epicoene, a boy disguised as a woman.

(4) 4th work,

The Alchemist tells the story of a young shepherd named Santiago who is able to find a treasure beyond his wildes dreams. Along the way, he learns to listen to his heart and, more importantly, realizes that his dreams, or his Personal Legend, are not just his but part of the Soul of the Universe.
