Far from teleological historiography, the pan-European perspective
on Early Modern drama offered in this volume provides answers to
why, how, where and when the given phenomena of theatre appear in
history. Using theories of circulation and other concepts of
exchange, transfer and movement, the authors analyze the
development and differentiation of European secular and religious
drama, within the disciplinary framework of comparative literature
and the history of literature and concepts. Within this frame,
aspects of major interest are the relationship between tradition
and innovation, the status of genre, the proportion of autonomous
and heteronomous creational dispositions within the artefacts or
genres they belong to, as well as strategies of functionalization
in the context of a given part of the cultural net. Contributions
cover a broad range of topics, including poetics of Early Modern
Drama; political, institutional and social practices; history of
themes and motifs (Stoffgeschichte); history of
genres/cross-fertilization between genres; textual traditions and
distribution of texts; questions of originality and authorship;
theories of circulation and net structures in Drama Studies.
