Dramatic Geography: Romance, Intertheatricality and Cultural Encounter in Early Modern Mediterranean Drama

Research output: Book/ReportAuthored book

Abstract

Focusing on early modern plays which stage encounters between peoples of different cultures, this book asks how a sense of geographical location was created in early modern theatres that featured minimal scenery. While previous studies have stressed these plays' connections to a historical Mediterranean in which England was increasingly involved, this volume demonstrates how their dramatic geography was shaped through a literary and theatrical heritage.
