The way that characters in early modern theatrical performance think through their surroundings is important in our understanding of perception, memory, and other forms of embodied affective thought. Thinking Through Place on the Early Modern English Stage traces how characters orientthemselves within unfamiliar or otherwise strange locations, and how their locations function as scaffolding for these moments of "ecological thinking".Thinking through Place on the Early Modern English Stage shows how performance brings places into being, revealing a process that both resembles and parallels the cognitive work that early modern playgoers undertook in reimagining the stage as the settings of the dramatic fiction. It traces thevexed relationship between these two registers in works by Marlowe, Shakespeare, Beaumont, and Jonson, thereby countering a critical tradition that figures drama as a form of spatial abstraction. Instead it demonstrates that theatrical performance functioned as a means of thinking through and aboutplace in the early modern period.
