Description

Explore a new critical paradigm for understanding the construction and performance of Jacobean drama. In this study, Callan Davies introduces the concept of strangeness as a lens through which to view the works of the early modern period. This approach reflects a perspective that would have been familiar to the playwrights and audiences of the time. This book combines cultural analysis and philosophical enquiry with the history of staged special effects. It examines how the preoccupation with the strange connects the verbal, visual, and philosophical elements of performance. Readers will find detailed analysis of works by major playwrights including Shakespeare, Marston, Middleton, Dekker, Heywood, and Beaumont and Fletcher. This text is a valuable resource for those studying theatre history, performance studies, and early modern literature.
