Description

Explore the connection between literature and warfare in 1590s Drama and Militarism. This interdisciplinary study by Routledge examines how the military realities of the late Elizabethan period influenced dramatic works. By looking at the discursive nature of militarism, the text provides a deep look into the anxieties of an unstable era during the aging queen's reign. This book moves beyond traditional literary analysis. It uses both literary and non-literary texts, such as contemporary military correspondence and manuals, to reconstruct the military exigencies of the 1590s. It offers a unique perspective on how authors like Marlowe, Chapman, and Shakespeare addressed the art of war in their writing. This is an essential resource for scholars interested in how the literature of the period reflected the actual military climate of the time.

Key Features
