This week we have a discussion of the play Dick of Devonshire by... well, you shall hear. This is a chat with Kate Ellis, who has produced a Revels edition of the play, the first critical edition of this manuscript text. It is available to purchase now from Manchester University Press, though it's still a tad pricey.

CW: We do discuss the sexual violence within the play, from about half way through the episode.

Kate Ellis is a Postdoctoral Research Fellow at the University of Exeter.

Our exploring sessions on the play are not yet available to the general public - but they are on the way!
