Excerpt from Early London Theatres: In the Fields HE late J. O. Halliwell-phillipps, whose life-long labours in Shakespearean and Elizabethan literature made his Opinion of the greatest importance, was struck with my attempt, in the pages of the Antiquary, to cast the story of the Shakespeare stage into a narrative of the playhouses; and he urged me to bring my work to completion in a book on the subject. The present volume represents the first half of the fulfilment of a promise which I made to him. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1899 edition. Excerpt: ... a general view suggests a history before Henslowe came into contact with it at all. Moreover, there is nothing in the Diary itself to neutralize the supposition that it has only a chance or accidental beginning. It is true that the marriage of Alleyn with Henslowe's step-daughter in October, 1592, suggests a reason for starting the book; but, on the other hand, the earliest entries in point of time begin in February, 1592, and there is nothing to show that the partnership between Henslowe and Alleyn began subsequently to the marriage. The marriage may have come about in consequence of the partnership. If so, the record, if any existed, is lost. In short, the Diary appears to have no significance in its commencement, and may have been preceded by some other book of record. The dramatic predispositions of Newington Butts have been indicated. There is, outside the Diary of Henslowe, at least one record of plays there, viz., in 1586--the very year Henslowe was contemplating the construction of his Rose Theatre. It is noted in the register of the privy council in that year that their lordships had desired the lord mayor, in pursuance of representations made by him in the matter, to restrain and prohibit plays within the city, ' and that their Lord-shippes have taken the like order for the prohibiting of the use of playes at the Theatre and th' other places about Newington out of his charge.' Again, Howes, in his ' Continuation of Stow's Annals, ' 1631, concludes an enumeration of London theatres built during sixty years previous by adding, ' besides one in former time at Newington Buts.' The next point to note is the evidence of Henslowe having lived in the Clink liberty in I577;t how long he may have lived there Halliwell-Phillipps, '.

Unruly Audiences and the Theater of Control in Early Modern London explores the effects of audience riots on the dramaturgy of early modern playwrights, arguing that playwrights from Marlowe to Brome often used their plays to control the physical reactions of their audience. This study analyses how, out of anxiety that unruly audiences would destroy the nascent industry of professional drama in England, playwrights sought to limit the effect that their plays could have on the audience. They tried to construct playgoing through their drama in the hopes of creating a less-reactive, more pensive, and controlled playgoer. The result was the radical experimentation in dramaturgy that, in part, defines Renaissance drama. Written for scholars of Early Modern and Renaissance Drama and Theatre, Theatre History, and Early Modern and Renaissance History, this book calls for a new focus on the local economic concerns of the theatre companies as a way to understand the motivation behind the drama of early modern London.

A History of English Theatres from the Beginnings to the RestorationThe method of dramatic representation in the time of Shakespeare has long received close study. Among those who have more recently devoted their energies to the subject may be mentioned W.J. Lawrence, T.S. Graves, G.F. Reynolds, V.E. Albright, A.H. Thorndike, and B. Neuendorff, each of whom has embodied the results of his investigations in one or more noteworthy volumes. But the history of the playhouses themselves, a topic equally important, has not hitherto been attempted. If we omit the brief notices of the theatres in Edmond Malone's The Plays and Poems of William Shakespeare (1790) and John Payne Collier's The History of English Dramatic Poetry (1831), the sole book dealing even in part with the topic is T.F. Ordish's The Early London Theatres in the Fields. This book, however, though good for its time, was written a quarter of a century ago, before most of the documents relating to early theatrical history were discovered, and it discusses only six playhouses. The present volume takes advantage of all the materials made available by the industry of later scholars, and records the history of seventeen regular, and five temporary or projected, theatres. The book is throughout the result of a first-hand examination of original sources, and represents an independent interpretation of the historical evidences. As a consequence of this, as well as of a comparison (now for the first time possible) of the detailed records of the several playhouses, many conclusions long held by scholars have been set aside. I have made no systematic attempt to point out the cases in which I depart from previously accepted opinions, for the scholar will discover them for himself; but I believe I have never thus departed without being aware of it, and without having carefully weighed the entire evidence. Sometimes the evidence has been too voluminous or complex for detailed presentation; in these instances I have had to content myself with reference by footnotes to the more significant documents bearing on the point.CONTENTSI.
