Description

Explore a new perspective on early modern theatre with Women and Dramatic Production 1550-1700 from the Longman Medieval and Renaissance Library. This scholarly work challenges the traditional idea that women were excluded from the professional theatre scene during this era. Instead of viewing women as being in retreat, this book argues that many women actively participated in directing and controlling their own dramatic self-representations. By examining a wide range of texts from the mid-sixteenth century through to the end of the seventeenth century, the chapters trace the growth of a women-centered aesthetic. This text provides a detailed look at how women shaped the performing arts during a transformative period in history. It is an essential resource for students and researchers interested in the history of theatre, gender studies, and the development of dramatic arts in the early modern period.
