In a theatre which self-consciously cultivated its audiences'
imagination, how and what did playgoers "see" on the stage? This
book reconstructs one aspect of that imaginative process. It
considers a range of printed and documentary evidence, the majority
previously unpublished, for the way ordinary individuals thought
about their houses and households; and it then explores how writers
of domestic tragedies engaged those attitudes to shape their
representations of domesticity. It therefore offers a new method
for understanding theatrical representations, based around a truly
interdisciplinary study of the interaction between literary and
historical methods. The plays cited include Arden of Faversham, Two
Lamentable Tragedies, A Woman Killed With Kindness, and A Yorkshire
Tragedy.
