SchneiderLondon ;New York :Routledge,2016.1 online resource (331 p.)Studies in performance and early modern dramaFirst published 2011 by Ashgate Publishing.1-4094-1017-X Includes bibliographical references and index.Introduction : Matters of viewpoint -- Matters of definition -- 'Prologus' to prologue in classical drama -- Epilogue origins and medieval framing texts -- 'Sit, see and hear' : prologues, epilogues and the dichotomised audience -- 'Ladies, take your places' : prologues, epilogues and the female spectator -- The framing text, matters of custom -- Conclusion : Identifying the framing text.Though individual prologues and epilogues have been treated in depth, very little scholarship has been published on early modern framing texts as a whole. Combining original analysis with carefully compiled, comprehensive reference data, the author fills a gap in the literature by examining the origins of these texts and investigating their growing importance and influence in the theatre of the period.Studies in performance and early modern drama.English dramaEarly modern and Elizabethan, 1500-1600History and criticismElectronic books.English dramaHistory and criticism.822/.3Schneider Brian W.900276MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910456838203321The framing text in early modern English drama2011313UNINA
