Many readers today associate the early modern history play with
Shakespeare. While not wishing to ignore the influence of
Shakespeare, this collection of essays explores other historical
drama between 1500 and 1660, covering a wide range of different
formats outside the canon of 1590s history cycles. An introduction
provides a survey of current criticism, including both early modern
and contemporary definitions of the 'history play'. Individual
essays in chronological order explore genres that perform 'history'
in different ways, such as shows, moralities or closet drama. In
this way this collection establishes alternative paradigms of early
modern historical drama.
