Considering major works by Kyd, Shakespeare, Middleton and Webster
among others, this book transforms current understanding of early
modern revenge tragedy. Examing the genre in light of historical
revisions to England's Reformations, and with appropriate regard to
the social history of the dead, it shows revenge tragedy is not an
anti-Catholic and Reformist genre, but one rooted in, and in
dialogue with, traditional Catholic culture. Arguing its tragedies
are bound to the age's funerary performances, it provides a new
view of the contemporary theatre and especially its role in the
religious upheavals of the period.
