Theatre of the English and Italian Renaissance studies
interrelationships between English and Italian Theatre of the
Renaissance period, including texts, performance and performance
spaces, and cultural parallels and contrasts. Connections are
traced between Italian writers including Aretino, Castiglione and
Zorenzo Valla and such English playwrights as Shakespeare, Lyly and
Ben Jonson. The impact of Italian popular tradition on
Shakespeare's comedies is analysed, together with Jonson's
theatrical recreation of Venice, and Italian sources for the court
masques of Jonson, Daniel and Campion.
