Shakespeare's and Peele's Titus Andronicus has had a theatrical and
a critical revival in the last fifteen years; the critical revival
was perhaps prompted by Jonathan Bate's Arden edition of the play
and its revision of the traditional critical account that it is an
immature work and overly sensationalistic with its emphasis on
non-essential violence. Recent debates and approaches have drawn
closer attention to the play's classicism; re-defined its genre
(for example the revised edition of the New Dramatic Sources will
re-classify the play as one of Shakespeare's Roman plays);
re-considered the nature of violent spectacle, family relations and
kinship, political alliance, race and miscegenation. This study
will explore how the revitalized critical responses to early modern
and contemporary performance histories has had a significant impact
upon the wider reception of this play.
