Description
In this major reassessment of his subject, Richard Rowland restores Thomas Heywood- playwright, miscellanist and translator-to his rightful place in early modern theatre history. Rowland contextualises and historicises this important contemporary of Shakespeare, locating him on the geographic and cultural map of London through the business Heywood conducts in his writing. Thomas Heywood's Theatre, 1599-1639, fits a fascinating piece into the emerging picture of the 'complete' early modern English theatre.
