The Undiscovered Countries
The multiple uses of religion in Shakespeare’s plays seem to counter each other at every turn. In one respect, though, I have found a surprising consistency. Moments when Shakespeare’s drama imagines the afterlife are moments that lend significant insights into the play’s action or characterization, even though the image of one undiscovered country may differ drastically from another. Across the canon, the afterlife may appear as a place of relig…

The Masters of the Revels and Elizabeth I’s Court Theatre, by W.R. Streitberger
Upon the 1923 publication of E.K. Chambers’s four-volume The Elizabethan Stage, A.R. Pollard observed that it stood to other treatises on the subject as the Dictionary of National Biography stood to other biographical dictionaries. One reviewer remarked that it brought together ‘practically all the discoverable evidence upon the various parts of the subject’ (New Statesman). Just as time took its toll and the Oxford Dictionary of National Biograp…
The 1559 Books of Common Prayer and the Elizabethan Reformation
The 1559 Book of Common Prayer printed by Richard Grafton has been dismissed by bibliographers, who have suggested that Grafton printed it as ‘agent for Jugge and Cawood’ (the Queen’s Printers) and ‘improperly put his name in the imprint’. Relying on evidence from a 1559 Grafton prayer book in the collection of Corpus Christi College, Oxford, which contains the signatures of members of Elizabeth i ’s Privy Council that can be dated prior to the o…

Press Censorship in Caroline England
Between 1625 and 1640, a distinctive cultural awareness of censorship emerged, which ultimately led the Long Parliament to impose drastic changes in press control. The culture of censorship addressed in this study helps to explain the divergent historical interpretations of Caroline censorship as either draconian or benign. Such contradictions transpire because the Caroline regime and its critics employed similar rhetorical strategies that depend…

The History of the Book and a History of Two Books
Recent publications in the history of the book show both the variety and sophistication of studies in this emerging discipline; even so, skeptics find little literary value in print culture studies. In response, this demonstrates how literary strategies in two early modern texts – Castiglione's Book of the Courtier (1528) and Shakespeare's Sonnets (1609) – respond to divergent conditions in print culture in Venice and London

Press Censorship in Jacobean England
This 2001 book examines the ways in which books were produced, read and received during the reign of King James I. It challenges prevailing attitudes that press censorship in Jacobean England differed little from either the 'whole machinery of control' enacted by the Court of Star Chamber under Elizabeth or the draconian campaign implemented by Archbishop Laud, during the reign of Charles I. Cyndia Clegg, building on her earlier study Press Censo…

Press Censorship in Elizabethan England
This is a revisionist history of press censorship in the rapidly expanding print culture of the sixteenth century. Professor Clegg establishes the nature and source of the controls, and evaluates their means and effectiveness. The state wanted to control the burgeoning press, but there were difficulties in practice because of the competing and often contradictory interests of the Crown, the Church, and the printing trade. By considering the liter…
