FIRST EDITION. Octavo, pp. xviii 409. Publisher's black cloth with gilt title to spine, in an unclipped, beige, pictorial dust-jacket. A near fine copy with a tidy ownership inscription to the FFEP. In 1589 the Privy Council encouraged the Archbishop of Canterbury to 'Control the theatres', after plays addressing matters of Divi…nity and of State, viewed as unfit to be suffered, were written and performed. Womersley studies the impact this event had on historical drama, drawing on examples from the time of James I and from Shakespeare's play, in an exploration of the ramifications on the narrative of the national past, the separation of church and state, and the audacity of Shakespeare to reshape history.

Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. In 1589 the Privy Council encouraged the Archbishop of Canterbury to take steps to control the theatres, which had offended authority by putting on plays which addressed 'certen matters of Divinytie and of State unfitt to be suffred'. How had questions of divinity and state become entangled?… The Reformation had invested the English Crown with supremacy over the Church, and religious belief had thus been transformed into a political statement.In the plentiful chronicle literature of the sixteenth-century, questions of monarchical legitimacy and religious orthodoxy became intertwined as a consequence of that demand for a usable national pastcreated by the high political developments of the 1530s.Divinity and State explores the consequences of these events in the English historiography and historical drama of the sixteenth century. It is divided into four parts. In the first, the impact of reformed religion on narratives of the national past is measured and described. Part II examines how the entanglement of the national past and reformed religion was reflected in historical drama from Bale to theearly years of James I, and focuses on two paradigmatic characters: the sanctified monarch and the martyred subject. Part III considers Shakespeare's history plays in the light of the preceding discussion, andfinds that Shakespeare's career as a historical dramatist shows him eventually re-shaping the history play with great audacity. Part IV corroborates this reading of Shakespeare's later history plays by reference to the dramatic ripostes they provoked. This book explores how the Reformation's transformation of religious belief into a political statement and the saturation of the national past with religious implications (created by the political developments of the 1530s) was reflected in sixteenth-century English historiography and historical drama, including Shakespeare's history plays.
