The Style of the State in French Theater, 1630-1660 (eBook, ePUB)

Neoclassicism and Government

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Engaging with recent thinking about performance, political theory and canon formation, this study explores the significance of the formal changes in seventeenth-century French theater. The author shows how the conceptualization of these shifts appropriates a rich body of Italian writing on questions of action, temporality and law, and in a series of new readings challenges a literary history that has read neoclassicism largely as a display of pure French style.
