Subject: Women Writing About Seeing Early Modern Plays
Dear SHAKSPERians,
I'm aware of a number of diaries and letters in which early modern men
write about going to or seeing theatrical productions. I'm unaware of
any texts by early modern women that record their experiences going to
or seeing plays between about 1580 and 1642. I'm primarily interested
in non-fiction accounts, but would also find fictionalized accounts
helpful. If you're aware of any early modern texts by women that might
help me, I'd appreciate hearing.
Please respond off-list to me at This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it..
Thanks in advance for your help,
