The Elizabethan Stage

Zusatztext The four volumes of Sir Edmund (E. K.) Chambers's The Elizabethan Stage, first published in 1923, remain a necessary cornerstone of the library of any scholar concerned with the theatre and drama of the age of Shakespeare. No one before him had compiled so comprehensive and meticulous a study of the basic documents relating to court performances, to state control of the theatrical profession, to individual theatre companies and their personnel, to the playhouses themselves, the dramatists and their individual works, the anonymous and even the lost plays. Though inevitably superseded in some respects by later research these volumes remain an essential resource for students of the most important era of our theatre history. Klappentext Volume IV of a reissue of the E. K. Chambers's seminal four-volume account of the private, public, and court stages, together with other forms of drama and spectacle surviving from earlier times, from the beginning of the reign of Elizabeth until the death of Shakespeare.
