Description

Explore the connection between economic theory, literary criticism, and public theater in London at the turn of the seventeenth century. In Desires of Credit in Early Modern Theory and Drama, author Brian Sheerin examines how the rise of these three fields shared a common fascination: the ability to create something from nothing through belief and action. This scholarly work investigates the fundamental questions regarding the human imagination during this period. It looks at how investments of belief can lead to tangible consequences, linking the mechanics of commerce with the art of poesy. By studying the relationship between economic inquiry and literary theory, the book provides a deep look into how the concept of credit functioned in both the marketplace and the theater. Part of the Studies in Performance and Early Modern Drama series, this book is an essential resource for those studying the history of performance and the evolution of early modern thought. It offers a unique perspective on how the act of believing helps shape reality in both economic and dramatic contexts.
