This book establishes new information about the likely content of ten lost plays from the period 1580-1642. The plays' authors include Nashe, Heywood, and Dekker; and they connect in direct ways to some of the most canonical dramas of English literature, including Hamlet, King Lear, The Changeling, and The Duchess of Malfi. In the process, the study offers innovative thinking both on the practicalities of digital humanities and on the emerging field of lost play studies.
