This title was first published in 2000: England experienced
something of a social revolution in the years from the early 16th
century to the Civil War. This work seeks to add a new dimension to
the discussion of this phenomena by focusing on the emerging role
and function of social behaviour as a means of signalling social
identity and rank. Noting the even greater emphasis placed on
manners, customs and ordinary behaviour during that time period,
Darryll Grantley demonstrates the interrelation of two key elements
- education and drama - in the reconstruction of social identity.
By examining the relationship between education and drama, Grantley
contributes important perspectives on the ways in which drama
functioned in society. He explores education as a prominent motif
in the aristocratically patronized drama of the 16th century; the
contribution of the academy to the evolution of public modes of
drama; education and the playwrights; education and the audience;
and the representations of learning and social behaviour on the
public stage.
