Anthony Munday and civic culture is a full-scale study of a
fascinating but hitherto neglected author set in the context of the
city where he was born, lived and worked. Munday was a contemporary
of Shakespeare, Jonson, Middleton and Dekker, amongst others. As a
playwright, prose writer, translator, poet, pageant-maker and
pamphleteer he was active in all the major literary genres of his
day. Now in paperback this study of his diverse works throws fresh
light on our understanding of this significant period. A wide range
of Munday's texts are explored in depth, including plays, original
prose works, translations, Lord Mayor's Shows, and his editions of
John Stow's 'Survey of London'. Hill employs an interdisciplinary
methodology drawing on history, biography, literary criticism and
topography. She explores historical sources as well as literary
texts and the book will appeal to students and scholars of both
early modern literature and history as well as to cultural
geographers. -- .
