This book explores how theatrical practices shaped the multiplying
forms of conversion that emerged in early modern Europe. Each
chapter focuses on a specific city or selection of cities including
Venice, London, Mexico City, Madrid and Berne. Collectively, these
studies establish a picture of early modernity as an age teeming
with both excitement and anxiety over conversional activities.
Considering the commercial theatre that produced professional
dramatists such as Lope de Vega and Thomas Middleton, the book
surveys a wide variety of kinds of performances that brought
theatricality into formative relationships with conversional
practices. As a whole, the volume addresses issues of conversion as
it pertains to early modern theatre, literature, theology,
philosophy, economics, urban culture, globalism, colonialism, trade
and cross-cultural exchange.
