Engaging and stimulating, this Introduction provides a fresh vista
of the early modern theatrical landscape. Chapters are arranged
according to key genres (tragedy, revenge, satire, history play,
pastoral and city comedy), punctuated by a series of focused case
studies on topics ranging from repertoire to performance style,
political events to the physical body of the actor, and from plays
in print to the space of the playhouse. Julie Sanders encourages
readers to engage with particular dramatic moments, such as opening
scenes, skulls on stage or the conventions of disguise, and to
apply the materials and methods contained in the book in inventive
ways. A timeline and frequent cross-references provide continuity.
Always alert to the possibilities of performance, Sanders reveals
the remarkable story of early modern drama not through individual
writers, but through repertoires and company practices, helping to
relocate and re-imagine canonical plays and playwrights.
