Opis

A comprehensive reassessment of Middleton's cultural importance, this wide-ranging study examines both the writer's dramatic and non-dramatic texts to demonstrate how he laid bare the complicit interests at work behind the assumptions about sex, morality, society and politics in late feudal culture.

Recenzje

Chakravorty provides superb analyses of the ways in which Middleton consistently inverts traditional motifs, themes, and characters to create new insights.
