The Invisible World: A Study Of Pneumatology In Elizabethan Drama by Robert Hunter West is a comprehensive analysis of the role of the supernatural in Elizabethan drama. The book explores the concept of pneumatology, which refers to the study of spirits, and how it was used by playwrights of the time to create a sense of mystery and intrigue in their works. West examines the plays of major Elizabethan playwrights such as William Shakespeare, Christopher Marlowe, and John Webster, and delves into the ways in which they incorporated supernatural elements into their works. The book also explores the cultural and religious context of the time, and how these factors influenced the portrayal of spirits in Elizabethan drama. The Invisible World is a valuable resource for scholars of Elizabethan literature, theatre, and culture, as well as anyone interested in the history of the supernatural in literature.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
