While all the plays employ similar dramatic devices for "putting skepticism on stage", the study explores how these dramas, however, give different "answers" to the challenges posed by skepticism in relation to their respective historico-cultural and "ideological" contexts. 606 $aLiterature: history & criticism$2bicssc 606 $aLiterary studies: plays & playwrights$2bicssc 610 $aCalderón de la Barca. 610 $aCervantes. 610 $aDrama. 610 $aEarly Modern Literature. 610 $aJean de Rotrou. 610 $aLope de Vega. 610 $aShakespeare. 610 $aSkepticism. 615 7$aLiterature: history & criticism 615 7$aLiterary studies: plays & playwrights 676 $a809.20094 700 $aPawlita$b Leonie, $4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0944493 801 0$bDE-B1597 801 1$bDE-B1597 906 $aBOOK 912 $a996309064303316 996 $aStaging Doubt$92132094 997 $aUNISA
