Gieskes, PhD, Edward

Professor

I am writing a book-length study of generic change in early modern English drama tentatively titled: "'Not marching in fields of Trasimene'": Generic Innovation in Shakespeare and His Contemporaries." The book investigates the sources of generic changes that alter the shape of the dramatic field in the later 1580s and the early decades of the seventeenth century.
