The relationship between pain and theater in English drama is explored by scholars mostly of English literature. A main concern is to show how pain, which is a perennial companion through all the ages, was cast in the particular historical light of the early modern period. Their topics include tragedy and trauma in Tamberlaine Part One, inventive violence in the Renaissance revenge tragedy, the performance of judicial wounding such as whipping and branding, and reading the Restoration actress' body in pain in Ravencroft's 1678 Titus Andronicus or the Rape of Lavinia.
