- Dramatic Geography identifies a new approach to a cluster of Mediterranean-focused early-modern plays that have been the subject of significant critical scrutiny over the past two decades. This c.84,000-word scholarly monograph brings theatre history into dialogue with Mediterranean studies to demonstrate how the specific conventions, performance styles and architecture of the early-modern theatres inflected these plays’ locational meanings; how the plays responded to one another’s visions of the Mediterranean in what it calls ‘intertheatrical geography’; and how their geographies were shaped by the spatial logic of a romance tradition reaching across Europe and back to the ancient world.
