Ben Jonson and Theatre

Richard Cave, Elizabeth Schafer, Brian Woolland

'would suit advanced undergraduate or postgraduate students' - Gabriel Egan'It will be useful to students and lecturers looking for ways into the works of Jonson, and particularly to those wishing to focus on questions of performance. And, very importantly, it gives a sense of the energy and outrageousness locked up in his texts.' - Lisa Hopkins, Early Modern Literary Studies
