Focusing on plays by Shakespeare, Jonson, Dekker, Heywood, and others, this book examines the way work was depicted on the English stage between 1590 and 1611. It describes changing beliefs about work in the sixteenth century, and identifies important contrasts between plays written for the adult and child repertories.
