With one brilliant insight, Separation Scenes demonstrates the entanglement of the global and the domestic in the Elizabethan and Jacobean years. Ann Christensen's readings of key domestic plays are both entirely fresh and historically true. -Lena Cowen Orlin, professor of English at Georgetown University, executive director of the Shakespeare Association of America, and author of Locating Privacy in Tudor London -- Lena Cowen Orlin Thorough, original, and revelatory, Separation Scenes brings to life the domestic drama of early modern England and elegantly illuminates a history of domesticity that includes the labors of women and men within and, crucially, far beyond the thresholds of the home. -Ariane M. Balizet, associate professor of English at Texas Christian University and author of Blood and Home in Early Modern Drama: Domestic Identity on the Renaissance Stage ? -- Ariane M. Balizet Ann C. Christensen provides the best and most original study of early modern domestic tragedy to date... Christensen allows us to see with greater clarity how the emergence of the 'domestic' is closely entangled with the rise of the 'global.' This is an important intervention. -Jonathan Gil Harris, dean of academic affairs and professor of English at Ashoka University and author of Shakespeare and Literary Theory -- Jonathan Gil Harris
