Description

This study of eighteenth-century French playwriting and playwrights reviews individual authorial strategies for "self-fashioning" and the playwrights' intellectual, social, and institutional contexts, using research in original sources and analysis of the contentious historiography and competing analytic constructs in cultural theory and criticism.
