    Porter MAKING AND Chloe Porter UNMAKING IN EARLY MODERN ENGLISH DRAMA Why are early modern English dramatists preoccupied with unfinished processes of ‘making’ and ‘unmaking’? And what did ‘finished’ or ‘incomplete’ mean for spectators of plays and visual works in this period? Making and unmaking in early IN EARLY MODERN ENGLISH DRAMA IN EARLY UNMAKING AND MAKING modern English drama is about the prevalence and significance of visual things that are ‘under construction’ in early modern plays. Contributing to challenges to the well-worn narrative of ‘iconophobic’ early modern English culture, it explores the drama as a part of a lively post-Reformation visual world. Interrogating the centrality of concepts of ‘fragmentation’ and ‘wholeness’ in critical approaches to this period, it opens up new interpretations of the place of aesthetic form in early modern culture. An interdisciplinary study, this book argues that the idea of ‘finish’ had transgressive associations in the early modern imagination. It centres on the depiction of incomplete visual practices in works by playwrights including Shakespeare, John Lyly, and Robert Greene. The first book of its kind to connect dramatists’ attitudes to the visual with questions of materiality, Making and Unmaking in Early Modern English Drama draws on a rich range of illustrated examples. Plays are discussed alongside contexts and themes, including iconoclasm, painting, sculpture, clothing and jewellery, automata, and invisibility. Asking what it meant for Shakespeare and his contemporaries to ‘begin’ or ‘end’ a literary or visual work, this book is invaluable for scholars and students of early modern English literature, drama, visual culture, material culture, theatre history, history and aesthetics.

VEGAS DESERT TRAIL - DAY Worn-out running shoes pad over a dusty trail on the outskirts of Las Vegas. The shoes belong to EMMA BECKER, 17, a natural beauty whose auburn ponytail bounces with each confident stride. Emma veers into a neighborhood of depressingly small houses, turns down a driveway to her sagging home. INT. EMMA’S FOSTER HOME - DAY Emma crosses down a hallway off the faded living room. INT. EMMA’S BEDROOM - NEARLY CONTINUOUS ... Emma kicks off her shoes, starts to slip out of her top... when she notices TRAVIS BOYLE, 19, her pea-eyed foster brother, leering at her through an open window. TRAVIS Hey, ‘sis. Good run? EMMA I’m not your sister. TRAVIS Okay, foster sister... Like that better, anyway. So many more possibilities. EMMA You are such a perv. TRAVIS And you so read things into what I say. Emma reaches to close the blinds. EMMA I don’t think so. Now if you don’t mind... TRAVIS Only if you close those blinds. Emma BANGS the window shut, yanks the blinds, blotting out Travis’s toothy grin. Emma falls back on her bed, gazing 2. up at the ceiling. She’s painted the ceiling in dayglow stars, the only decoration in an otherwise drab bedroom. A sudden PINGING causes Emma to bolt up. She opens her laptop, immediately linked to Skype.
