  • Product Description

    Drawing on new research and informed by recent developments in literary and historical studies, this book studies the relationship between war and theatre in Britain during the Revolutionary and Napoleonic wars (1793-1815). Russell examines the significance of the theatre as a site, not only of the celebration of war, but also of conflict between soldiers and civilians, and explores the phenomenon of amateur acting by the army and navy. Her original approach represents a substantial contribution to the cultural history of late Georgian Britain.
