This book is undeniably within the realm of theatre and theatre history, but it is also a work of social and cultural history around ideas of conception, childbirth, science, and gender. As a resource for scholars thinking about drama, genre, families, twins, science, non-dramatic literary culture, or any one of a number of other specific subtopics, this text is a fresh, insightful volume that will surely open up new avenues of inquiry for its readers. - Jess Hamlet, University of Alabama, Early Theatre Author InformationDaisy Murray is Higher Education Programme Developer for the Royal Shakespeare Company.
