Focuses on the diverse ways in which Shakespeare, Spenser, Marlowe, Dekker, Jonson, Milton and Herrick incorporated the carnivalesque in their works. This title demonstrates how these texts were used - and misused - by later writers, performers, and inventors of spectacles, notably Mardi Gras krewes organizing parades in the American Deep South.
