Tuite (Theater History and Criticism, Catholic University of America) examines the important role played by theatrical performance in Irish political life and culture between 1662 and 1692. Besides providing close readings of specific plays in performance, the book also analyzes the dramatic literature staged in Dublin during the late 17th century, and examines how specific media were used to define Ireland, its inhabitants, and the proper social order. Looking at media including the Theatre Royal, services of the Church of England, and viceregal and civic ceremonies, Tuite details the practices that separated one medium from another and shows how each medium was used to dramatize the important events in Irish history during this period.
