      abstract = {This book theorizes the baroque as neither a time period  nor an artistic style but as a collection of bodily  practices developed from clashes between governmental  discipline and artistic excess, moving between the  dramaturgy of Jesuit spiritual exercises, the political  theatre-making of Angelo Beolco (aka Ruzzante), and the  civic governance of the Venetian Republic at a time of  great tumult. The manuscript assembles plays seldom read or  viewed by English-speaking audiences, archival materials  from three Venetian archives, and several secondary sources  on baroque, Renaissance, and early modern epistemology in  order to forward and argument for understanding the baroque  as a gathering of social practices. Such a rethinking of  the baroque aims to complement the already lively studies  of neo-baroque aesthetics and ethics emerging in  contemporary scholarship on (for example) Latin American  political art.},
