Delve into the potent fusion of money, magic, and theatre during England’s early modern period.

Essential for students and scholars of Renaissance drama, this book analyzes seminal works by Shakespeare, Marlowe, and Jonson. It offers timely insights into the occult operations of finance, drawing parallels to modern deregulation and the aesthetic power of theatricality. A crucial read for understanding the cultural and economic forces that defined early modern English theatre.
