Medieval Afterlives: Transforming Traditions in Shakespeare and Early English Drama

This book shows how early drama traditions were transformed, re-used and reformed across time to form new relationships with their audiences. Medieval afterlives brings new insight to the ways in which peoples in the sixteenth century understood, manipulated and responded to the history of their performance spaces, stage technologies, characterisation and popular dramatic tropes.
