Performing Arguments: Debate in Early English Poetry and Drama proposes a fresh performance-centered view of rhetoric by recovering, tracing, and analyzing the trope and tradition of aestheticized argumentation as a mode of performance across several early ludic genres: Middle English debate poetry, the fifteenth-century 'disguising' play, the Tudor Humanist debate interlude, and four Shakespearean works in which the dynamics of debate invite the plays' reconsideration under the new rubric of 'rhetorical problem plays.'
