Taking as its focus a neglected and scattered archive of plays printed in English before the establishment of successful commercial playhouses, this study shows how, for the first time, plays were treated as books to be read, rather than just as records of performance. In doing so, it charts the emergence of the dramatic author as a self-identifying category and the invention in England of drama as a literary genre.
