Anna Bayman

Thomas Dekker and the Culture of Pamphleteering in Early Modern London (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Historically, pamphlets have been used as sources for topics ranging from witchcraft to popular politics. Drawing on interdisciplinary historical methods and literary scholarship, Bayman uses the prose pamphlets of London playwright and pamphleteer Thomas Dekker (published between 1613 and 1628) as a way into the culture of print in early seventeenth-century England. In so doing she contributes to the post-revisionist historiography of political consciousness and print cultures under the early Stuarts, as well as illuminating the career of a relatively neglected writer.
