The Revolutionary Rhetoric of Hamilton analyzes traditional
conceptions about the musical, Hamilton, American history, and
current political disputes. This scholarly exploration of Hamilton
encourages audiences to interpret this popular cultural force in a
new way by revealing that the musical confronts conventional
conceptions of American history, racial equity, and political
power. Several chapters in this volume directly address recent
controversies and conversations surrounding Hamilton, including the
#CancelHamilton trend on social media, the musical's depiction of
slavery, and its intersections with the Black Lives Matter
movement. Contributors explore how the musical offers social
commentary on issues such as immigration and gender equity and how
Hamilton re-considers the roles of theatre in making social
statements, especially relating to the narrator, the role of the
curtain speech, and musical traditions. Chapters within the book
employ multiple novel theoretical approaches and
perspectives-including public memory, feminist rhetorical
criticism, disability studies, and sound studies-to reveal new
insights about this beloved show. Scholars of theatre studies,
media studies, and communication studies will find this book
particularly useful.
Originally published in 1923, this book addresses the old
controversy regarding the exact location of the Globe Theatre.
Through a wealth of evidence extracted from the records concerning
Shakespeare's London, this book is a direct response to William
Westmoreland Braines's pamphlet, issued by the London County
Council in 1921, in which Braines demonstrated that the theatre
must have stood to the south of Maiden Lane in Southwark. George
Hubbard, unconvinced by Braines's theory, presents one of the most
important and compelling cases of evidence for placing the site of
Shakespeare's playhouse to the north of Maiden Lane. This exchange
is the culmination of the controversy over the precise site of the
Globe Theatre, which dominated the earlier part of the twentieth
century. Detailed maps of London are included. This book will be of
considerable value to scholars of Shakespeare as well as to anyone
with an interest in theatre.
