Reviews

'A strong collection of essays on both canonical and non-canonical dramatic entertainments from the English Renaissance, Working Subjects in Early Modern English Drama adds materially to an ongoing conversation in early modern studies.' Douglas Bruster, University of Texas, USA '[An] excellent collection of essays ... the scholars here assembled have seized on what is interesting and culturally revelatory in a refreshingly diverse array of texts.' from the Afterword by Jean E. Howard '[This] book makes three major interventions. One, in moving beyond citizen or city comedies, it considers labour in relation to diverse theatrical forms, including emerging ones such as tricomedies and travel plays. Two... it expands the focus to production and to diverse labouring subjects. Three, the volume illuminates the intersection of local and global economic and cultural networks, a real need in the field.' Renaissance Quarterly '...One can only admire the ambitious nature of this book and its general success in carrying out its intention.' Theatre Research International
