Taking a new approach to the metaphor of the political body, this
book examines Shakespeare's representation of that body as
possessing epistemological faculties. The theater is one of these
faculties, and is, therefore, essential to the health and survival
of the Early Modern state. By depicting the theater as an essential
faculty of the body politic, Shakespeare offers a defense of the
theater against anti-theatrical critics. Students and teachers
interested in the body and its representations in literature will
find this text illuminating as will those scholars whose work
focuses on knowledge, its relationship to the body, ways of
knowing, and anti-theatrical prejudice.
