Book Synopsis Antitheatricality and the Body Public by : Lisa A. Freeman
Book excerpt: In an exploration of antitheatrical incidents from the seventeenth to the twentieth century, Lisa A. Freeman demonstrates that at the heart of antitheatrical disputes lies a struggle over the character of the body politic that governs a nation and the bodies public that could be said to represent that nation.
