{"product_id":"elizabethan-drama-john-gassner-9781557830289","title":"Elizabethan Drama: Eight Plays","description":"Boisterous and unrestrained like the age itself, the Elizabethan theatre has long defended its place at the apex of English dramatic history. Shakespeare was but the brightest star in this extraordinary galaxy of playwrights. The stage boasted a rich and varied repertoire from courtly and romantic comedy to domestic and high tragedy, melodrama, farce, and histories. The Gassner-Green anthology revives the whole range of this universal stage, offering us the unbounded theatrical inventiveness of the age. Elizabethan Drama is designed to provide the modern reader with complete access to the plays, as well as the beguiling Elizabethan world which was their backdrop. John Gassner's classic introduction is supplemented by his and William Green's superb prefaces to the individual plays. Marginal glosses and footnotes throughout keep the immediacy of the Elizabethan stage within easy reach.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e John Gassner\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1557830282\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781557830289\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Applause Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/01\/2000\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 674\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.54lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.88h x 5.46w x 1.33d","brand":"John Gassner","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43991599775999,"sku":"9781557830289","price":22.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_f2e977bb-fa8c-4a28-8758-66cd85ac1800.jpg?v=1683311191","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/elizabethan-drama-john-gassner-9781557830289","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
