Theatre and Humanism : English Drama in the Sixteenth Century.

Kent Cartwright proposes that humanist drama of the sixteenth century is theatrically exciting - rather than literary, elitist and dull as it has often been seen - and socially significant, taking as examples the plays of Marlowe, Heywood, Lyly and Greene, as well as many by lesser-known dramatists.
