Fletcherian dramatic achievement: a study in the mature plays of John Fletcher (1579-1625)

Drábek, P; Drabek, Pavel

Abstract

The mature plays of John Fletcher, Shakespeare's collaborator and successor with the King's Men, have received little critical attention. This book analyzes the specifics of mature Fletcherian style, proposing a reading that agrees with the Baroque mode. Special attention is given to anachronistic conventions that have been applied to Fletcherian drama.
