Synopsis Inventions of the Skin by : Andrea Stevens
Examines the painted body of the actor on the early modern stage. Inventions of the Skin illuminates a history of the stage technology of paint that extends backward to the 1460s York cycle and forward to the 1630s. Organized as a series of studies, the four chapters of this book examine goldface and divinity in York's Corpus Christi play, with special attention to the pageant representing The Transfiguration of Christ; bloodiness in Elizabethan and Jacobean drama, specifically blood's unexpected role as a device for disguise in plays such as Look About You (anon.) and Shakespeare's Coriolanus; racial masquerade within seventeenth-century court performances and popular plays, from Ben Jonson's Masque of Blackness to William Berkeley's The Lost Lady; and finally whiteface, death, and stoniness"e; in Thomas Middleton's The Second Maiden's Tragedy and Shakespeare's The Winter's Tale. Recovering a crucial grammar of theatrical representation, this book argues that the onstage embodiment of characters--not just the words written for them to speak--forms an important and overlooked aspect of stage representation.

Synopsis Inventions of the Skin by : Andrea Ria Stevens
This book challenges the narrative of Shakespeare's 'bare' stage by looking at the 'ground zero' of early modern theatrical representation: the painted body of the actor. It questions the boundaries of the period categories 'mediaeval' and 'early modern' by demonstrating important continuities in theatrical labour and theatrical materials from mediaeval cycle drama through to the popular and courtly drama of the 1630s.
