Review
'In this exciting new book, Celia R. Daileader creates a bold and original thesis from her observation that the early modern theatre featured no actual female bodies ... imaginatively invigorates our senses, quickens our intellect and transforms our knowledge.' Mark Thornton Burnett, Theatre Research International
Book Description
In this 1998 book, Celia Daileader explores paradoxes of eroticism on the early modern English stage, where women were materially absent but symbolically central. She draws an analogy with the suppression of religious drama in England and draws together questions about the bodies - of Christ and of woman - banished from the stage.

Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. Celia Daileader explores the paradoxes of eroticism on the stage in early modern England, where women and their bodies (represented by boy actors) were materially absent and yet symbolically central. Her starting point is the theoretical and theatrical problem of sexual acts that take place offstage, which is a paradigm for the limits of the visible in Renaissance theatre. The space that lies offstage becomes an imaginary realm, encompassing both spiritual and erotic transcendence. In accounting for its power, Daileader looks to the suppression of religious drama in England and the resulting secularization of the stage. Focusing on the link between absence and desire, and discussing a wide range of drama from Corpus Christi plays to Shakespeare, her argument draws together questions about sexuality and the sacred, in the bodies - of Christ and of woman - that are banished from the early modern English stage. Eroticism on the early modern English stage, and the analogous suppression of religious drama. This item is printed on demand.
