Purchase options and add-ons

The purpose of this absorbing collection is to illuminate the world of the theatre by setting it squarely in its historical context. To that end, Professor Evans draws on the whole spectrum of Elizabethan-Jacobean writing, from official documents to diaries and letters. Part I, The Theatre and the World, deals, through contemporary writings, with the drama itself, the audiences and their responses, theatrical companies, acting and actors, and buildings and technical matters. Part II, The Worlds and the Theatre, illustrates how the problems of everyday life, complicated as they were by moral, religious, social, political, and economic issues, provided an ever-fruitful source of materials to the dramatists who practiced their craft during this extraordinarily creative period.

5.0 out of 5 stars Bought for research - read for pleasure
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on November 8, 2012
Verified Purchase
This book was bought specifically to research background for the next Kit Marlowe Mystery for Severn House (Jealous Honour to be published Spring 2013) but was read with much pleasure - it had loads of detail and also some very quirky facts which made it an excellent read.
