Beskrivning
A collection of essays which show how early drama traditions were transformed, recycled, 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. In doing so, this volume advocates for a new understanding of sixteenth-seventeenth century theatre makers as highly aware of the medieval traditions that formed their performance practices, and audiences who recognised and appreciated the recycling of these practices between plays.

Recensioner i media

"Eclectic and original... Black and Goodland’s collection is the product of an experimental and often enlivening approach to familiar materials."- Early Theatre 'This essay collection is designed to join the ranks of those volumes that, for several decades now, have labored to offer nuance to the traditional “Mankind to Marlowe” narrative in the study of premodern drama. The editors go beyond most earlier efforts in this scholarly turn by embedding the individual articles within a frame of paratexts that buttress their revisionist message.'Richard Utz, Speculum
