Early Modern Cultural Studies 1500–1700: Politics and Economics of the Early Modern English Stage, 1625-1642

Zucker, A.; Farmer, A.

This book redefines the plays and theatrical culture of the years 1625 to 1642 as something more than simply post-Shakespearean in character. Scholars reveal the drama's mixture of political engagement, urbane cosmopolitanism, and commercial ingenuity. They urge us to recalibrate our histories to account for the innovations of the Caroline period.
