520    "Politics and Aesthetics in European Baroque and 
       Classicist Tragedy is a volume of essays investigating 
       European tragedy in the seventeenth century, comparing 
       Shakespeare, Vondel, Gryphius, Racine and several other 
       vernacular tragedians, together with consideration of neo-
       Latin dramas by Jesuits and other playwrights. To what 
       extent were similar themes, plots, structures and styles 
       elaborated? How is difference as well as similarity to be 
       accounted for? European drama is beginning to be 
       considered outside of the singular vernacular frameworks 
       in which it has been largely confined (as instanced in the
       conferences and volumes of essays held in the Universities
       of Munich and Berlin 2010-12), but up-to-date secondary 
       material is sparse and difficult to obtain. This volume 
       intends to help remedy that deficit by addressing the 
       drama in a full political, religious, legal and social 
       context, and by considering the plays as interventions in 
       those contexts. Contributors are: Christian Biet, Jan 
       Bloemendal, Helmer J. Helmers, Blair Hoxby, Sarah M. 
       Knight, Tatiana Korneeva, Frans-Willem Korsten, Joel B. 
       Lande, Russell J. Leo, Howard B. Norland, Kirill Ospovat, 
       James A. Parente, Jr., Freya Sierhuis, Nienke Tjoelker and
       Emily Vasiliauskas"--|cProvided by publisher.
