<p>"This “recovery” project is a welcome addition to our often painfully inadequate knowledge of the roles women played in the circulation of dramatic texts and performance practices in early modern Europe. ... As the book’s first printed title pages announce explicitly, it is a <i>tragicomedia</i>. Nonetheless, this is a valuable book and one which deserves to be taken seriously, as do the theatrical foremothers whose contributions it honours." </p><p><strong>- Hilaire Kallendorf, Texas A&M University</strong></p><p>"Beyond Spain’s Borders thoroughly succeeds as an integral and coherent study because of its insistent and illuminating focus on women players in the widest sense of the term." </p><p><strong>- Robert Henke,<em> Bulletin of the Comediantes, </em>Volume 69, Number 2, 2017, pp. 133-137</strong></p><p>"Much excellent reading and research, sometimes in areas which are difficult to map, is behind these chapters, and contributors and editors alike should take the credit for the quality of the end result."</p><p><strong>- Jonathan Thacker, Exeter College, University of Oxford, <em>Early Modern Women: An Interdisciplinary Journal</em></strong></p>
