This book explores the ways in which the early modern hobby-horse featured in different productions of popular culture between the 1580s and 1630s. Natália Pikli approaches this study with a thorough and interdisciplinary examination of hobby-horse references, with commentary on the polysemous uses of the word, offers an informative background to reconsider well-known texts by Shakespeare and others, and provides an overview on the workings of cultural memory regarding popular culture in early modern England. The book will appeal to those with interest in early modern drama and theatre, dramaturgy, popular culture, cultural memory, and iconography.

Excerpt from Some Hobby Horses The favourite Hobby Horse is generally dignified by the name of a collection. I, myself, am one of a large family, and I should be sorry to say how many varieties of things we did not collect in the house, in the garden, and, above all, in the shrubberies which surrounded my old home.
