Rethinking Theatrical Documents brings together fifteen major
scholars to analyse and theorise the documents, lost and found,
that produced a play in Shakespeare's England. Showing how the
playhouse frantically generated paratexts, it explores a rich
variety of entangled documents, some known and some unknown: from
before the play (drafts, casting lists, actors' parts); during the
play (prologues, epilogues, title-boards); and after the play
(playbooks, commonplace snippets, ballads) - though 'before',
'during' and 'after' intertwine in fascinating ways. By using
collective intervention to rethink both theatre history and book
history, it provides new ways of understanding plays critically,
interpretatively, editorially, practically and textually.
