Eroticism on the Renaissance Stage: Transcendence, Desire, and the Limits of the Visible (Cambridge Studies in Renaissance Literature and Culture) Book

Celia Daileader explores the paradoxes of eroticism in early modern English drama, where women and their bodies (represented by boy actors) were materially absent and yet symbolically central. Accounting for the significance of the space offstage, where most sexual acts take place, Daileader looks to the suppression of religious drama in England and the resulting secularization of the stage.
