This is the third volume to be published in the series Theatre in
Europe. This book makes available for the first time an overview of
a significant segment of European theatre history and, with few
exceptions, none of the documents presented have been published in
English before. Gathered from a rich variety of sources, including
imperial and municipal edicts, contracts, architectural
descriptions, playbills, stage directions and actors' memoirs among
others, the book sheds light on one of the most fascinating areas
of cultural life in the German- and Dutch-speaking countries.
Explanatory passages put these documents into their historical
context, and numerous illustrations bring the material even more
vividly to life. Also included is the source location for each
document and a substantial bibliography.
