This volume analyzes early modern cultural representations of
children and childhood through the literature and drama of
Shakespeare and his contemporaries. Contributors include leading
international scholars of the English Renaissance whose essays
consider asexuals and sodomites, roaring girls and schoolboys,
precocious princes and raucous tomboys, boy actors and female
apprentices, while discussing a broad array of topics, from animal
studies to performance theory, from queer time to queer fat, from
teaching strategies to casting choices, and from metamorphic sex
changes to rape and cannibalism. The collection interrogates the
cultural and historical contingencies of childhood in an effort to
expose, theorize, historicize, and explicate the spectacular
queerness of early modern dramatic depictions of children.
