The first book-length study examining how the Shakespearean theatre shaped attitudes about primogeniture, one of England's most important and longstanding socio-economic systems. This book offers a new understanding of the history of both inheritance and patriarchy in early modern England, appealing to readers interested in Renaissance drama, economic history, family history, and gender studies.
