Examining a variety of works, from revenge plays to Shakespeare's first history tetralogy and beyond, the author explores how this title not only exposed the faultlines of society on stage but also provoked playgoers in the audience to acknowledge all the differences they shared with one another.

Trade Review
"The Reformation of Emotions in the Age of Shakespeare is a powerful and provocative meditation on the innovative cultural forms and emotional processes that emerged from the violent affective dislocations of memory, identity, and community of the English Reformation. Mullaney addresses issues of wide interest among scholars of early modern literature and culture through evocative readings of both familiar and unfamiliar plays that are consistently surprising, insightful, and original." (William N. West, Northwestern University)
