Radical Tragedy: Religion, Ideology and Power in the Drama of Shakespeare and His Contemporaries Book

When first published in 1984 (University of Chicago Press), Radical Tragedy was hailed as a major reinterpretation of Renaissance drama and as a pioneering moment in the critical development of cultural materialism. In a provocative introduction to this second edition, Dollimore reconsiders both his subject and his critical perspective, reflecting, too, on the reception of the book and his motives for writing it. He also writes on the importance of materialist theory, literary and cultural, in breaking new ground in Renaissance studies and more generally in English studies. Dollimore's theoretical re-reading of this major historical period has led to a significant rethinking of some of the orthodoxies of theory itself, and demonstrates the way in which the Renaissance can be used to "read" theory as well as vice versa.Read More
