{"product_id":"three-jacobean-witchcraft-plays-peter-corbin-9780719019531","title":"Three Jacobean Witchcraft Plays","description":"For Jacobean society, witchcraft was a potent and very real force, an area of sharp controversy in which King James I himself participated and a phenomenon that attracted many dramatists and writers. The three plays in this volume reflect the variety of belief in witches and practice of witchcraft in the Jacobean period. Jacobean understanding of witchcraft is illuminated by the close study of these contrasting texts in relation to each other, and to other contemporary works: \"The Masque of Queenes\", \"Dr Faustus\", \"Macbeth, and \"The Tempest\". The introduction and commentaries explore the theatrical potential of plays which, with the exception of \"The Witch of Edmonton\", have been hitherto lost to the dramatic repertory.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Peter Corbin\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0719019532\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780719019531\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Manchester University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/20\/1986\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 260\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.75lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.40h x 5.40w x 0.90d","brand":"Peter Corbin","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43981132628223,"sku":"9780719019531","price":23.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_d60133bb-44b1-434b-9e75-32d15073aa86.jpg?v=1683253836","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/three-jacobean-witchcraft-plays-peter-corbin-9780719019531","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
