From Playhouse to Printing House: Drama and Authorship in Early Modern England - Cambridge Studies in Renaissance Literature and Culture
Brooks, Douglas A. (Texas A & M University)
Douglas Brooks examines how Renaissance dramatists made the difficult transition from writing plays for the theatre to publishing them as literary works. Tracing the path from playhouse to printing house, he looks at the book trade's role in shaping the literary reputations of Shakespeare, Jonson, Webster, Beaumont, Fletcher and Thomas Heywood.
