The Theatrical City - Culture, Theatre and Politics in London, 1576-1649 (Paperback, Revised)

This collection of essays adopts an interdisciplinary approach to a diverse group of texts--historical accounts, political documents and polemical works--composed in London during the Renaissance. Eight literary scholars and eight historians have been paired to write companion essays to each text, offering insights that could elude members of either discipline working in isolation. "Theatrical" is taken to be a very flexible term, and is applied to civic rituals and public spectacles of the capitol as well as to the elite and popular theater.
