Interprets the playhouse and staging as a social institution closely related to the theatricality of Elizabethan culture, and argues that in his early history plays, Shakespeare explored the contradictions between ceremonial, theatrical, and rhetorical displays of power and the political and military realities that the displays camouflaged.
