Shepherds and shepherdesses populated the English stage long before the theaters closed. Walter Greg inquires into pastoral poetry and drama, tracing the idealized countryside through pre-Restoration literature. A scholarly study of the rural imagination in verse and play. Trace how the farm became a stage for poetry and romance.

Every copy includes a printable PDF edition, a beautifully typeset book you can print, mark up in the margins, and keep on your shelf. Yours the moment you own it.
