Music, Dance, and Drama in Early Modern English Schools is the
first book to systematically analyze the role that the performing
arts played in English schools after the Reformation. Although the
material record is riddled with gaps, Amanda Eubanks Winkler sheds
light on the subject through an innovative methodology that
combines rigorous archival research with phenomenological and
performance studies approaches. She organizes her study around a
series of performance-based questions that demonstrate how the
schoolroom intersected with the church, the court, the domicile,
the concert room, and the professional theater, which allows her to
provide fresh perspectives on well-known canonical operas performed
by children, as well as lesser-known works. Eubanks Winkler also
interrogates the notion that performance is ephemeral, as she
considers how scores and playtexts serve as a conduit between past
and present, and demonstrates the ways in which pedagogical
performance is passed down through embodied praxis.
