Subject: Shakespeare Studies XXXIV and Medieval and Renaissance Drama 19
SHAKESPEARE STUDIES, VOLUME XXXIV
Edited by SUSAN ZIMMERMAN
Associate Editor GARRETT SULLIVAN
Volume XXXIV continues the journal's series of Forums, in which a group
of scholars address an issue of importance to early modern studies. The
Forum in this issue is entitled ''Is There Character After Theory?''
Organized and introduced by Raphael Falco, it features Tom Bishop,
Dympna Callaghan, Jonathan Crewe, Christy Desmet, Elizabeth Fowler, and
Alan Sinfield. Volume XXXIV also includes three essays: Roger Chartier
on ''Jack Cade, the Skin of a Dead Lamb, and the Hatred for Writing'';
Julian Yates on ''Stealing Shakespeare's Oranges''; and Anston Bosman on
'''Best Play with Mardian': Eunuch and Blackamoor and Imperial
Culturegram.'' In addition to these articles, the journal includes
substantial reviews of significant publications dealing with these
issues, as well as theoretical studies relevant to scholars of early
modern culture.
Susan Zimmerman is Professor of English at Queens College, City
University of New York. Garrett Sullivan is Associate Professor of
English at Pennsylvania State University.

MEDIEVAL AND RENAISSANCE DRAMA IN ENGLAND
Volume 19
Edited by S. P. CERASANO
Medieval and Renaissance Drama in England is an international volume
published annually. Each volume contains essays and studies by critics
and cultural historians from both hemispheres as well as substantial
reviews of books and essays dealing with medieval and early modern
English drama before 1642. Volume 19 reflects a variety of scholarly
interests. The collection opens with two essays-each exploring different
aspects of John Webster and James Shirley-that further our understanding
of attribution studies. One essay-on the ownership of the Bell Savage
Playhouse-showcases MaRDiE's ongoing interest in early playhouses, while
another-on Marston's Entertainment at Ashby-addresses performance
history. Two further essays discuss issues related to stage costuming.
Issues of actual identity are raised in an essay concerning John Lyly's
biography, while two other authors probe the complex connections between
drama and economics. William Rowley's All Lost by Lust becomes the
centerpiece for a reassessment of rape tragedy.
S. P. Cerasano is the Edgar W. B. Fairchild Professor of Literature at
Colgate University.
