We‘re in heaven when we‘re in love, admire the stars and Milky Way on crystal-clear nights, and look up to attempt to forecast the weather. We have always been fascinated and shaped by the sky, and even though science may have demythologised it, nonetheless it uses evernew technology to gaze deeper and farther into the universe and is constantly making new discoveries. Rolf Heilmann picks us up with our everyday experiences and questions about the sky, and takes us along on a fascinating journey through the times – from the worlds of the gods and art, philosophy and technology to the exploration of nearby and distant galaxies and the last secrets of science.

A collection of essays which show how early drama traditions were transformed, recycled, re-used and reformed across time to form new relationships with their audiences. Medieval afterlives brings new insight to the ways in which peoples in the sixteenth century understood, manipulated and responded to the history of their performance spaces, stage technologies, characterisation and popular dramatic tropes. In doing so, this volume advocates for a new understanding of sixteenth-seventeenth century theatre makers as highly aware of the medieval traditions that formed their performance practices, and audiences who recognised and appreciated the recycling of these practices between plays.
