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. 410 0$aStudies in performance and early modern drama. 606 $aEnglish drama$yEarly modern and Elizabethan, 1500-1600$xHistory and criticism 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aEnglish drama$xHistory and criticism. 676 $a822/.3 700 $aSchneider$b Brian W.$0900276 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910456838203321 996 $aThe framing text in early modern English drama$92011313 997 $aUNINA
