The Shakespearean Forest

Beschreibung

Anne Barton's final book uncovers woodland's persistent imaginative power in renaissance drama. Paying close attention to the practicalities of performance, the collection is representative of Barton's breadth of scholarship: it considers plays by Shakespeare and his contemporaries, court pageants, treatises on forestry and chronicle history.
