Women's Household Drama: Loves Victorie, A Pastorall, and The concealed Fansyes

Women's Household Drama: Loves Victorie, A Pastorall, and The concealed Fansyes

Sara Mueller
0/5 ( ratings)
This volume presents three plays by women that were written in specific household contexts and survive in distinctive handwritten copies dating from their authors’ lifetimes. Care is taken in the introductions, notes, and apparatus to make the plays accessible to non-specialist readers while also preserving early modern orthography, punctuation, and manuscript practices. Each play is presented in an edited old-spelling text and set within its literary, biographical, and theatrical context. The volume as a whole foregrounds the early modern household as a uniquely productive setting for women’s theatrical and literary activity.
