Internal Evidence and Elizabethan Dramatic Authorship: An Essay in Literary History and Method

Internal Evidence and Elizabethan Dramatic Authorship: An Essay in Literary History and Method

by S. Schoenbaum (Author)

Synopsis

Internal Evidence and Elizabethan Dramatic Authorship provides one the earliest attempts to write a theoretical method for evidence within plays to help determine authorship or to help distinguish the work of one author from another. Samuel Schoenbaum's study remains valuable, for the attempt to attribute unattributed plays to one or another author remains an ongoing conversation within early modern scholarship today.
