Wooden Os

de Vin Nardizzi

"Wooden Os is a study of the presence of trees and wood in the drama of Shakespeare and his contemporaries--in plays set within forests, in character dialogue, and in props and theatre constructions. Vin Nardizzi connects these themes to the dependence, and surprising ecological impact, of London's commercial theatre industry on England's woodlands, the primary resource required to build all structures in early modern England."--Dust jacket.
