Violence Against Women in Early Modern Performance explores rape and domestic violence against women around the turn of the seventeenth century in England, its pernicious erasure in the period's cultural representations, the framing and negotiation of that erasure in some of the most iconic texts in English theatre history - Shakespeare's Titus Andronicus , Heywood's A Woman Killed With Kindness , Webster's The Duchess of Malfi , and Middleton and Rowley's The Changeling - and the politics of rehearsing it all on our late twentieth- and twenty-first century stages.
