Staged Transgression in Shakespeare's England is a groundbreaking
collection of essays that draws together leading and emerging
scholars to investigate performances of transgression on the early
modern English stage. Building on recent scholarship in studies of
performance, politics, gender, sex, and race, this collection seeks
to assess, respond to, and look beyond the last concentrated
critical discussion of transgression in the 1980s. This collection
explores areas of study that have been previously neglected in
scholarly discussion and seeks to challenge critical orthodoxies
and assumptions about the power and effect of onstage performances
of illicit, deviant and disorderly behaviour. Contributors examine
a wide range of onstage activities - from drunkenness and spitting
to murder and rebellion - and offer fresh insights into the
cultural work of theatre in Shakespeare's England.
