Abstract
This chapter sets up the early conditions for the friendship between Goodere and Conway that developed between 1603 and the 1620s. It shows how Goodere attempted to secure Conway’s post in the Netherlands in 1603. Goodere seems to have abandoned this plan for the life of a courtier, but maintained contact with Conway, until 1609—when, this chapter argues, he gave Conway a copy of Donne’s prose Problems in manuscript. Conway, in turn, gave them to Lodewijk Rouzee, who translated them into Latin and printed them in 1616 while studying to be a doctor. Just one year later, Donne himself seems to have visited Conway in London, and the rest of the chapter examines the possibility that Conway possessed a manuscript copy of Biathanatos, Donne’s suicide tract, and that Ben Jonson was its scribe.
