简介

Transgressive and darkly brilliant, the drama of John Webster has long been celebrated as one of the crowning glories of the English Renaissance. David Coleman locates Webster's remarkable plays within the context of the tumultuous political, religious, and economic climate of Jacobean London. He reintroduces readers to the playwright's great tr...   more 籥gedies and familiarizes them with lesser-known works. He unpacks the fascination and repulsion expressed by generations of critics and theatergoers, ultimately arguing that the relevance and resonance of Webster is nowhere near extinct. This marks the only introductory guide to Webster's work that takes recent scholarship into account. Chapters devoted to The White Devil, The Duchess of Malfi, and The Devil's Law-Casesituate each of these plays within their historical, cultural, and critical contexts. Coleman also recounts the performances of these plays, from their original stage production to today's cinematic interpretations.   ?less
