"Representing France and the French in Early Modern English Drama furnishes previously unpublished evidence of France's role and importance in the early modern English literary and dramatic fields. This collection covers many genres and provides insights into the work of a large number of early modern dramatists (major playwrights, as well as lesser-known writers). The book's chapter-length introduction gives the reader a critical presentation of the issues involved." "This book appeals to students and specialists of Renaissance literature, to scholars working on the construction of national identity, and to anyone interested in cultural exchange or comparative literature."--BOOK JACKET.
