This book explores the secret relations between theatre and
diplomacy from the Tudors to the Treaty of Westphalia. It offers an
original insight into the art of diplomacy in the 1580-1655 period
through the prism of literature, theatre and material history.
Contributors investigate English, Italian and German plays of
Renaissance theoretical texts on diplomacy, lifting the veil on the
intimate relations between ambassadors and the artistic world and
on theatre as an unexpected instrument of 'soft power'. The volume
offers new approaches to understanding Early Modern diplomacy,
which was a source of inspiration for Renaissance drama for
Shakespeare and his European contemporaries, and contributed to
fashion the aesthetic and the political ideas and practice of the
Renaissance.
