Radical Comedy in Early Modern England: Contexts, Cultures, Performances
Rick Bowers
Drawing on the generic and mythic strength of comedy and the theories of Bakhtin, Bergson, and Hobbes, this book identifies the radical nature of early modern English comedy. It shows how comic interventions both describe and reconfigure prevalent authority in its own time.
