Bloomsbury Publishing Plc - Rethinking Theatrical Documents In Shakespeares England - Paperback

Binding: Paperback
Description: This book is open access and available on www. bloomsburycollections. com. It is funded by Knowledge Unlatched. Rethinking Theatrical Documents brings together fifteen major scholars to analyse and theorise the documents lost and found that produced a play in Shakespeare's England. Showing how the playhouse frantically generated paratexts it explores a rich variety of entangled documents some known and some unknown: from before the play (drafts casting lists actors parts); during the play (prologues epilogues title - boards); and after the play (playbooks commonplace snippets ballads) though before during and after intertwine in fascinating ways. By using collective intervention to rethink both theatre history and book history it provides new ways of understanding plays critically interpretatively editorially practically and textually.
