This 2002 volume provides an accessible, wide-ranging and informed introduction to Shakespeare's history and Roman plays. It is attentive throughout to the plays as they have been performed over the centuries since they were written. The first part offers accounts of the genre of the history play, of Renaissance historiography, of pageants and masques, and of women's roles, as well as comparisons with history plays in Spain and the Netherlands. Chapters in the second part look at individual plays as well as other Shakespearean texts which are closely related to the histories. The Companion offers a full bibliography, genealogical tables, and a list of principal and recurrent characters. It is a comprehensive guide for students, researchers and theatre-goers alike.Cambridge companions to literature.Historical drama, EnglishHistory and criticismHandbooks, manuals, etcMiddle Ages in literatureHandbooks, manuals, etcKings and rulers in literatureHandbooks, manuals, etcLiterature and historyGreat BritainHandbooks, manuals, etcGreat BritainHistory1066-1687HistoriographyHandbooks, manuals, etcHistorical drama, EnglishHistory and criticismMiddle Ages in literatureKings and rulers in literatureLiterature and history822.3/3Hattaway MichaelCambridge University Press,UkCbUPUkCbUPBOOK996205088603316Cambridge companion to Shakespeare's history plays225478UNISA
