The Celebrated Hannah Cowley Experiments in Dramatic Genre, 1776}}}1794 [Paperback]

Hannah Cowley (17431809) was a very successful dramatist, and something of an eighteenth-century celebrity. New critical interest in the drama of this period has meant a resurgence of interest in Cowleys writing and in the performance of her plays. This is the first substantial monograph study to examine Cowleys life and work.
