A Feminist Perspective on Renaissance Drama
by Alison Findlay

This book uses the writings of sixteenth- and seventeenth-century women to construct a feminist perspective on drama by Shakespeare, Marlowe, Jonson, Middleton, Ford, and their contemporaries. We know that women made up a significant part of Renaissance theatre audiences. A Feminist Perspective on Renaissance Drama explores how they might they have read the plays presented there. The volume is arranged thematically around key issues or genres. It examines religious compositions, beliefs which underpinned relations between men and women, revenge tragedy, deep fears and desires about women's agency and maternal power, comedy, the female romantic quest, the city as a site of female pleasure, and the household space as a specifically female form of imprisonment. The final chapter discusses queenship, subjects, and women's interventions into masculine history.
