Description: |
A study of the regulation of English renaissance drama which focuses on the role of the Master of the Revels. The author argues that patronage pressures were influenced by the power politics of the court, thereby having implications for historical readings of plays written during this time. |
Synopsis: |
Mastering the Revels offers a detailed reconsideration of the regulation of English Renaissance drama. It is the first study to approach the issue through the role of the Masters of the Revels, who censored most late Tudor and early Stuart plays, relating the control they exercised over the actors to the political context of the court office they themselves held. |
