On the Queerness of Early English Drama (English, Tison Pugh)

Product description Review "This book has secured a place among the monographs that have shaped the field of early modern queer historiography and drama." -- Goran Stanivukovic, Saint Mary’s University ― Renaissance and Reformation"Pugh’s well-researched and convincingly argued book demonstrates not only the value and relevance of the medieval theatrical tradition but also its long-suppressed queerness." -- Nils Clausson ― The Gay & Lesbian Review"Tison Pugh’s On the Queerness of Early English Drama: Sex in the Subjunctive is a welcome addition to queer studies scholarship in early English drama studies. It reminds us how very queer early English drama is and provides fresh avenues of exploration for those of us working in this field." -- Jeffery G. Stoyanoff, Pennsylvania State University Altoona ― Early Theatre"For its fine scholarship, Pugh’s book stands beside related studies such as Mario DiGangi’s The Homoerotics of Early Modern Drama and James Bromley’s Clothing and Queer Style in Early Modern English Drama. For its accessible language and skillful application of current critical queer theory, this title will appeal to students at all levels." -- G. Sikorski, Anne Arundel Community College ― CHOICE About the Author Tison Pugh is Pegasus Professor in the Department of English at the University of Central Florida.
