The book fills a niche in early modern scholarship, no such
comprehensive treatment of hobby-horse allusions was published
before. Relevant dictionaries and glossaries in critical editions
will be much helped by the book, because it contextualizes and
often corrects traditional explanations for the word 'hobby-horse.'
The comprehensive treatment of hobby-horse allusions, ranging from
cultural history to theatrical, print productions and images allows
for a fuller understanding of how popular culture worked in early
modern England. Comparative close readings of little known and
canonical plays highlight differences between types of
dramaturgical composition, and such conclusions may be useful for
theatre practitioners even today. The book caters for the interests
of people coming from various fields: theatre, cultural history,
literature, art history, folklore studies. The book is written in
an accessible language, guiding the reader informatively through a
lot of early modern texts and concepts.
