The redefinition of the Thomas Middleton canon has led to an
explosion of interest in this quintessential Jacobean. Middleton's
best-known plays, such as Women Beware Women and The Changeling,
are now staged, filmed and rewritten for modern audiences. But
Middleton also wrote religious poetry, satires, historical
allegory, prose and less familiar plays, collaborating frequently,
even with Shakespeare. His works are rooted in his historical and
cultural environment, from the Overbury scandal to the fall of the
boys' companies. Here, experts in literature, theatre, history, law
and religion analyze the complex contexts of Middleton's works,
clarifying debates over his religious and political affiliations.
Divided into sections presenting new interpretations of the world
in which Middleton wrote - as a Londoner, citizen, dramatist and
early modern man - and concluding with a section on performance
history, the essays cover the full range of his works, from the
frequently performed to the newest attributions.
