The Materiality of Religion in Early Modern English Drama is the first book to present a detailed examination of early modern theatrical properties informed by the complexity of post-Reformation religious practice. The study explores the relationship between popular culture and theatrical performance by considering the social history and dramatic function of certain stage properties, addressing their role as objects of devotion, idolatry, and remembrance on the professional stage.
