Description

Explore the deep connections between English Renaissance theater and political power with The Regal Phantasm (Routledge Revivals). This scholarly work examines how Shakespearean drama functioned as more than just entertainment. Instead, it served as a fundamental part of how sovereignty and political identity were understood during this era. By analyzing plays such as Henry V, Richard II, and Macbeth, the text connects dramatic performance to a wide range of cultural materials. Readers can study how theater interacted with historical accounts of sovereignty, royal portraiture, and the representations of treason and punishment. This book provides a detailed look at how the stage helped form the distinctive political subjectivity of the Renaissance period. This Routledge Revivals edition brings back a significant study originally published in 1989. It is an essential resource for students and scholars interested in performing arts, history, and the way theater shapes political thought.
