What
Is A Toby Jug?
~
A
Toby Jug, also sometimes known as
a Fillpot (or Philpot), is a pottery jug
in the form of a seated person, or the head of a recognizable person.
Typically the seated figure is a heavy-set, jovial man holding a mug
of beer in one hand and a pipe of tobacco in the other and wearing
18th-century attire: a long coat and
a tricorn hat. The tricorn hat forms
a pouring spout, often with a
removable lid, and a handle is attached at the rear. Jugs depicting
just the head and shoulders of a figure are also referred to as Toby
jugs, although these should strictly be called "character
jugs"[1] or face jugs, the wider historical term.
~
Who is Sir John Falstaff ~
Sir
John Falstaff is a fictional character who appears in three
plays by William Shakespeare and is eulogized in a fourth. His
significance as a fully developed character is primarily formed in
the plays Henry IV, Part 1 and Part 2, where he is a companion to
Prince Hal, the future King Henry V of England. A notable eulogy for
Falstaff is presented in Act II, Scene III of Henry V, where Falstaff
does not appear as a character on stage, as enacted by Mistress
Quickly in terms that some scholars have ascribed to Plato's
description of the death of Socrates after drinking hemlock. By
comparison, Falstaff is presented as the buffoonish suitor of two
married women in The Merry Wives of Windsor.
Though
primarily a comic figure, Falstaff still embodies a kind of depth
common to Shakespeare's major characters. A fat, vain, boastful, and
cowardly knight, he spends most of his time drinking at the Boar's
Head Inn with petty criminals, living on stolen or borrowed money.
Falstaff leads the apparently wayward Prince Hal into trouble, and is
ultimately repudiated after Hal becomes king.
