E Lit 4312 - Early Drama

Institution:

Washington University in St Louis

Subject:

Description:

This unit is concerned with English and European drama and spectacle from late Roman theater onward: primarily in England, but with comparative material from France and Italy. The chronological span of the course ends at about 1600; the working assumption is that there is no clean break between "medieval" and "Renaissance" drama, but that the theaters and scripts of the late 16th century should be understood as developing out of, as well as departing from, earlier theatrical traditions and practices.
