项目摘要

In the sixteenth century images of the national past were conditioned by considerations of religion. The Reformation, as has long been recognised, liberated great historiographical energies, and the English past was repeatedly re-imagined and re-written as the national religion was successively changed and inflected. However, the historiographical consequences of the Reformation have been more acknowledged than meticulously described. Therefore the first part of my monograph presents in more intimate detail than can be found in any existing account evidence for the textual dynamics that confessional change or tension introduced into historical writing about the English past from the first appearance of Fabyan's Chronicle in 1516 to the later Elizabethan editions of Foxe's Actes and Monuments. The second part builds on the conclusions of its predecessor by showing how the confessional energies which transformed and expanded the field of narrative historiography were equally, although often less overtly, present in the historical drama of the period. Here the temporal range extends from Bale's Kynge Johan (camp. 1538) to the second part of Heywood's If You Know Not Me (pub. 1606), and the discussion is focused upon two paradigmatic forms of character: the justified monarch and the martyred subject. The third part of the monograph takes the findings of its two predecessors, and tests them against the body of Shakespeare's historical drama in order to demonstrate the innovativeness and a-typicality of plays which have often (and mistakenly) been used to create the generic template of the Elizabethan history play. So the monograph promises to make a useful contribution to: a) our understanding of the historical writing of the sixteenth century, and in particular its relation to questions of religion; b) our understanding of Elizabethan historical drama, and of Shakespeare's place within it; and c) Shakespeare's relation to contemporary dramatists.

在16世纪，民族历史的形象受到宗教因素的制约。人们早就认识到，宗教改革解放了巨大的史学能量，随着国家宗教的不断变化和曲折，英国的过去被反复地重新想象和重新书写。然而，宗教改革的史学后果更多地被承认，而不是精心描述。因此，我的专著的第一部分比任何现有的记录证据都更详细地介绍了文本动态，即从1516年首次出现的Fabyan的Chronicle到后来的Foxe的Actes and Monuments的Escherichan版本，忏悔的变化或张力引入了关于英国过去的历史写作。第二部分以前一部分的结论为基础，展示了改变和扩大叙事史学领域的忏悔能量是如何同样存在于这一时期的历史戏剧中的，尽管往往不那么明显。在这里，时间范围从贝尔的Kynge Johan（营地）延伸。1538）到海伍德的第二部分如果你不知道我（pub. 1606年），讨论集中在两个典型的形式的性格：合理的君主和殉难的主题。第三部分的专题研究采取了其两个前辈的调查结果，并测试他们对莎士比亚的历史剧的身体，以展示的创新性和典型性的戏剧，经常（和错误）被用来创建一般模板的莎士比亚历史剧。因此，这本专著有望对以下方面作出有益的贡献：a）我们对16世纪历史写作的理解，特别是它与宗教问题的关系; B）我们对莎士比亚历史戏剧的理解，以及莎士比亚在其中的地位; c）莎士比亚与当代剧作家的关系。
