This volume considers the influential revival of ancient
philosophical skepticism in the 16th and early 17th centuries and
investigates, from a comparative perspective, its reception in
early modern English, Spanish and French drama, dedicating detailed
readings to plays by Shakespeare, Calderon, Lope de Vega, Rotrou,
Desfontaines, and Cervantes. While all the plays employ similar
dramatic devices for "putting skepticism on stage", the study
explores how these dramas, however, give different "answers" to the
challenges posed by skepticism in relation to their respective
historico-cultural and "ideological" contexts.
