Disguise Plots in Elizabethan Drama: A Study in Stage Tradition is a scholarly work written by Victor Oscar Freeburg in 1915. The book explores the use of disguise plots in Elizabethan drama, which were a popular device used by playwrights of the time to create tension, intrigue, and humor in their plays. Freeburg analyzes the different types of disguises used in these plays, from cross-dressing to mistaken identity, and examines the ways in which these plots were used to explore themes of gender, power, and social status. He also looks at the historical and cultural context in which these plays were written and performed, and how the use of disguise plots reflected the values and beliefs of Elizabethan society. The book is a valuable resource for scholars and students of Elizabethan drama, as well as anyone interested in the history of theater and the cultural influences that shaped it.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
