Masking the Drama
A Space for Revolution in Aphra Behn’s «The Rover» and «The Feign’d Courtezans»
Samenvatting
The book pursues an in-depth investigation of the process whereby female identity was performatively negotiated on the Restoration stage by women playwrights such as Aphra Behn and of how a new articulation of social space contributed to the formation of a potentially emancipatory sense of gendered selfhood.
