Theatres of Feeling

Beschreibung

This engaging account of theatregoing in the later eighteenth century explores the playhouse as a source of emotion during a period when the ability to feel demonstrated moral worth. Theatres of Feeling delivers a new approach to dramatic literature and performance, moving beyond more limited studies of text or performance.
