Review of the hardback: 'The book is a stimulating and suggestive study. The material presented is important in identifying the place of women's closet plays in English drama and in offering fresh insights into the way in which they are more politically charged than commercial drama. Straznicky presents us with a scholarly and carefully researched piece of work that will prove useful for future studies of seventeenth-century closet drama and of early modern female playwrights.' Theatre Research International, "Straznicky successfully shows that female closet drama is important literarily, socially, and politically, and that it is not a weak imitation of performed drama." Carol Blessing, Renaissance Quarterly, From the hardback review: 'Marta Straznicky's book is an essential read for anyone interested in the period 15501700, but particularly in women's history and its relationship to the act of writing. The research is impressive and the writing style eloquent, persuasive and accessible, as we are taken on a fascinating journey into the sensitivities surrounding women and writing in the period ...'

Theatre Research International, "This book continues and adds greatly to the reevaluation of women dramatists' place in the early modern period. Highly recommended." -Choice, From the hardback review: 'Marta Straznicky's book is an essential read for anyone interested in the period 1550-1700, but particularly in women's history and its relationship to the act of writing.

Synopsis
Marta Straznicky offers a detailed historical analysis of the relationship between early modern women's closet plays and the culture of reading. Straznicky reveals that these works, by Elizabeth Cary and Margaret Cavendish, among others, were part of an alternative dramatic tradition, an elite and private literary culture that was intellectually superior to, and politically more radical than, commercial drama., Marta Straznicky analyses early modern women's closet plays in their context, revealing that they were part of an elite dramatic tradition that was considered superior to commercial drama. This study underlines the importance of closet plays both in the history of women's writing and in the history of English drama., Marta Straznicky offers a detailed historical analysis of early modern women's closet plays: plays explicitly written for reading, rather than public performance. She reveals that such works were part of an alternative dramatic tradition, an elite and private literary culture, which was understood as intellectually superior to and politically more radical than commercial drama. Elizabeth Cary, Jane Lumley, Anne Finch and Margaret Cavendish wrote their plays in this conjunction of the public and the private at a time when male playwrights dominated the theatres. In her astute readings of the texts, their contexts and their physical appearance in print or manuscript, Straznicky has produced many fresh insights into the place of women's closet plays both in the history of women's writing and in the history of English drama.
