Drawing upon archival material as well as the drama, popular verse
and pamphlets, this book reads representations of masters and
servants in relation to key Renaissance preoccupations.
Apprentices, journeymen, male domestic servants, maidservants and
stewards, Burnett argues, were deployed in literary texts to
address questions about the exercise of power, social change and
the threat of economic upheaval. In this way, writers were
instrumental in creating servant 'cultures', and spaces within
which forms of political resistance could be realized.
