Michelle Ephraim

Reading the Jewish Woman on the Elizabethan Stage (eBook, PDF)

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

The first book-length examination of Jewish women in Renaissance drama, this study links lesser-known dramatic adaptations of the biblical Rebecca, Deborah, and Esther with the Jewish daughters made famous by Christopher Marlowe and William Shakespeare on the popular stage. Drawing upon original research on early modern sermons and biblical commentaries, Michelle Ephraim here shows the cultural significance of biblical plays that have until now received scant critical attention.
