Besides being a literary production under the special historical and cultural environment, what has been long ignored is that the play has also exerted influence on history and culture at certain point. From a new historical perspective, the life of the author, the social rules and dictates found within the play, and a reflection of the work's historical situation as evidenced in the text are discussed in detail. Through a thorough examination, it can be concluded that the play itself is a piece of history per se. By reading and exploring the play, readers do not only learn about history; they also shape and create it.展开更多

The so-called mongline History before is decomposed into a number of linear histories, and history which was non-narrative and non-representational is dismantled into histories narrated by many single narrators. Cultural discourse and historical discourse blend together. Jones shares the same conception on history and literature with New Historical critics who emphasize the complex mix-and-match interaction between history and text.展开更多
