The Anti-Christ's Lewd Hat: Protestants, Papists and Players in Post-Reformation EnglandDistinguished University Professor of Early Modern English History Peter Lake, Peter Lake, Michael C. Questier Yale University Press, 01.01.2002 - 731 Seiten "The book takes us not merely to the print shops, book stalls and theatres, but also to the pulpits, prisons and executions of post-reformation England. The deployment of these gory tales to attract paying audiences in theatres, and customers for pamphlets, was matched by their exploitation by clerics to attract the same broad congregation. While the godly attacked the depravity of Grub Street and of the theatre, the press and the stage retaliated by the use of anti-puritan stereotypes and stories."--BOOK JACKET. |
