Nostalgia for this imaginary time, both widespread and widely contested, was commodified by a burgeoning entertainment industry. This book offers a new perspective on the making of 'Merry England', arguing that it was driven both by the desires of audiences and the marketing strategies of writers, publishers and playing companies. Nostalgia in Print and Performance juxtaposes plays with ballads and pamphlets, just as they were experienced by their first consumers. It argues that these commercial fictions played a central role in promoting and shaping nostalgia. At the same time, the fantasy of the merry world offered a powerfully affective language for conceptualising longing. For playwrights like Shakespeare and others writing for the commercial stage, it became a way to think through the dynamics of audience desire and the aesthetics of repetition"-- $c Provided by publisher. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references (pages 211-234) and index. 505 0 $a Introduction: The merry worlds of merry England -- Merry worlds: Tudor nostalgia -- Dreamless art for the people: cheap print and catharsis -- Common people: drama and dialogue -- Martin and anti-Martin, 1588-1590 -- Merry histories, 1598-1599 -- Shakespeare's ballads, 1598-1610 -- The merry worlds of Windsor in 1600 -- Epilogue. 650 0 $a English literature $y Early modern, 1500-1700 $x History and criticism. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2008119581 650 0 $a Nostalgia in literature. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh94008483 650 0 $a Popular literature $z England $x History and criticism. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2010107545 650 0 $a Popular culture and literature $z England $x History $y 16th century. 650 0 $a Nostalgia $z England $x History. 650 7 $a English literature $x Early modern. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01710960 650 7 $a Nostalgia. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01039536 650 7 $a Nostalgia in literature. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01039540 650 7 $a Popular culture and literature. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01743936 650 7 $a Popular literature. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01071405 651 7 $a England. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01219920 648 7 $a 1500-1700 $2 fast 655 7 $a Criticism, interpretation, etc. $2 fast $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/1411635 $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/1411635 655 7 $a History. $2 fast $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/1411628 $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/1411628 776 08 $i ebook version : $z 9781108627603 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20191217030722.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=87F65B2E209B11EABA878C2E97128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
