This book investigates generic change in early modern theatre across multiple genres, unlike much other scholarship, attempting to understand change and innovation in terms of competition within the dramatic field. It draws on the work of Bakhtin and Bourdieu as well as theatre history, book history, and literary criticism to advance its argument about generic change and innovation.
