The Disguised Ruler in Shakespeare and his Contemporaries - Studies in Performance and Early Modern Drama
Kevin A. Quarmby
In the early seventeenth century, the London stage often portrayed a ruler covertly spying on his subjects. Commonly dated to the arrival of James I, these plays are typically viewed as synchronic commentaries on the Jacobean regime. This title demonstrates that the disguised ruler motif actually evolved in the 1580s.
