[231]-247) and index. 330 $aThe Figure of the Crowd in Early Modern London examines the cultural phenomenon of the urban crowd in the context of early modern London's population crisis. The book explores the crowd's double function as a symbol of the city's growth and as the necessary context for the public performance of urban culture. Its central argument is that the figure of the crowd acts as a supplement to the symbolic space of the city, at once providing a tangible referent for urban meaning and threatening the legibility of that meaning through its motive force and uncontrollable energy. 410 0$aEarly modern cultural studies. 606 $aEnglish literature$zEngland$zLondon$xHistory and criticism 606 $aEnglish drama$yEarly modern and Elizabethan, 1500-1600$xHistory and criticism 606 $aEnglish drama$y17th century$xHistory and criticism 606 $aCrowds$zEngland$zLondon$xHistory$y17th century 606 $aCrowds$zEngland$zLondon$xHistory$y16th century 606 $aCrowds in literature 607 $aLondon (England)$xPopulation$xHistory$y17th century 607 $aLondon (England)$xPopulation$xHistory$y16th century 607 $aLondon (England)$xIntellectual life 607 $aLondon (England)$xIn literature 615 0$aEnglish literature$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aEnglish drama$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aEnglish drama$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aCrowds$xHistory 615 0$aCrowds$xHistory 615 0$aCrowds in literature. 676 $a820.9/32421 700 $aMunro$b Ian$f1967-$0901140 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910784215503321 996 $aThe figure of the crowd in early modern London$93858709 997 $aUNINA
