Encompassing nearly a century of drama, this is the first book to
provide students and scholars with a truly comprehensive guide to
the early modern soliloquy. Considering the antecedents of the form
in Roman, late fifteenth and mid-sixteenth century drama, it
analyses its diversity, its theatrical functions and its
socio-political significances. Containing detailed case-studies of
the plays of Marlowe, Shakespeare, Jonson, Ford, Middleton and
Davenant, this collection will equip students in their own
close-readings of texts, providing them with an indepth knowledge
of the verbal and dramaturgical aspects of the form. Informed by
rich theatrical and historical understanding, the essays reveal the
larger connections between Shakespeare's use of the soliloquy and
its deployment by his fellow dramatists.
