This collection explores the role of gender in the formation of American theatrical culture in this period. It features essays on well-known early American dramatists such as Susanna Rowson or Judith Sargent Murray, but also sheds light on anonymous authors and more obscure theatrical practices. 410 0$aAmerican studies (Transcript (Firm)) 606 $aTheatre; Early America; American Revolution; Gender; Feminism; America; History of Theatre; American Studies; Gender Studies; Theatre Studies; 615 4$aTheatre; Early America; American Revolution; Gender; Feminism; America; History of Theatre; American Studies; Gender Studies; Theatre Studies; 676 $a792 676 $a305.42 702 $aLippert$b Leopold$pUniversität Wien, Österreich$4edt 702 $aPoole$b Ralph J$pUniversität Salzburg, Österreich$4edt 712 02$aBacklisttransformation EOSC Future 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910831590403321 996 $aThe Politics of Gender in Early American Theater$94128248 997 $aUNINA
