About this title

Synopsis

This is the first extensive close reading of John Webster's masterpiece of drama, The White Devil, and includes a study of its literary associations. The play is examined as an intricate texture of motifs and images, expressed through an organic form of �movements�, rather than through act and scene structure. In addition, connections of the play with Mary Magdalen, rogue pamphlets, Sir Walter Raleigh's trial, Thomas Adam's �White Devil� sermon, and John Donne's Biathanatos, are newly explored.

Review

�There is much interesting material in this study.� (The English Association)
