Shakespeare and the Idea of Apocrypha: Negotiating the Boundaries of the Dramati

Description: Shakespeare and the Idea of Apocrypha by Peter Kirwan Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description This book explores how, and on what grounds, plays have been excluded from the Shakespeare canon over the past four centuries. Combining approaches from varying fields of interest, it will appeal to researchers and graduate students in Shakespeare studies, early modern drama, theatre history, book history and attribution studies. Publisher Description In addition to the thirty-six plays of the First Folio, some eighty plays have been attributed in whole or part to William Shakespeare, yet most are rarely read, performed or discussed. This book, the first to confront the implications of the Shakespeare Apocrypha, asks how and why these plays have historically been excluded from the canon. Innovatively combining approaches from book history, theatre history, attribution studies and canon theory, Peter Kirwan unveils the historical assumptions and principles that shaped the construction of the Shakespeare canon. Case studies treat plays such as Sir Thomas More, Edward III, Arden of Faversham, Mucedorus, Double Falsehood and A Yorkshire Tragedy, showing how the plays contested Shakespearean status has shaped their fortunes. Kirwans book rethinks the impact of authorial canons on the treatment of anonymous and disputed plays.
