But what were the sources of Kyd's play, what did he mean by them, and what was their legacy? In a series of accessible, scholarly essays, this volume mediates on The Spanish Tragedy's most pressing themes, its remarkable influence on the drama of the age (including of course, on Hamlet), its gradual side-lining from the theatrical mainstream and its return, in modernity, to dramatic and critical acclaim."--Page 4 of cover.Arden early modern drama.TheaterProduction and directionGreat BritainRevenge in literatureTheaterProduction and directionRevenge in literature.792.95Rist Thomas1971-929944Rist Thomas1971-MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910798428803321The Spanish tragedy3742922UNINA
