Just published 30 March 2021“Love’s Victory” by Lady Mary Wroth, ed. Alison Findlay, Philip Sidney and Michael Brennan, The Revels Plays (Manchester University Press, 2021)
Publication of the full text of Lady Mary Wroth’s play is especially welcome since it is now 400 years since Edward Denny attacked her for publishing ‘an Idle book’ which he claimed had damaged his reputation. Sadly, and ironically, the live performance of her play, recorded at Penshurst Place for free public release in 2018, is currently subject to exactly the same kind of male censorship. Latest news on the film will be uploaded to the Dramatizing Penshurst page
