This 1998 book takes an alternative look at the courtly masque in
early seventeenth-century England. For a generation, the masque has
been a favourite topic of New Historicism, because it has been seen
as part of the process by which artistic works interact with
politics, both shaping and reflecting the political life of a
nation. These exciting essays move importantly beyond a monolithic
view of culture and power in the production of masques, to one in
which rival factions at the courts of James I and of Charles I
represent their clash of viewpoints through dancing and spectacle.
All aspects of the masque are considered, from written text and
political context to music, stage picture and dance. The essays,
written by distinguished scholars from around the world, present an
interdisciplinary approach, with experts on dance, music, visual
spectacle and politics all addressing the masque from the point of
view of their speciality.
