Transnational Connections in Early Modern Theatre Hardback
Edited by M. A. Katritzky, Pavel Drabek
Part of the Manchester University Press series
Hardback
Description
This volume explores the transnationality and interculturality of early modern performance in multiple languages, cultures, countries and genres.
Its twelve essays compose a complex image of theatre connections as a socially, economically, politically and culturally rich tissue of networks and influences.
With particular attention to itinerant performers, court festival, and the Black, Muslim and Jewish impact, they combine disciplines and methods to place Shakespeare and his contemporaries in the wider context of performance culture in English, Spanish, French, Dutch, German, Czech and Italian speaking Europe.
The authors examine transnational connections by offering multidisciplinary perspectives on the theatrical significance of concrete historical facts: archaeological findings, archival records, visual artefacts, and textual evidence. -- .
