It’s #KingsWomenWednesday, and our thread is on Thomasine Ostler (1595-1621), the ‘disobedient’ daughter of King’s Men sharer John Heminges. Known to theatre historians as the plaintiff in Ostler v. Heminges, Thomasine’s use of the law courts has much to tell us about her life.

@prof_nmehdiz Such a good idea! I’m a big fan of edited special journal issues. Learned a lot writing my most recent essay, “Character (TM): Character-writing, Drama, and the Shape of Literary History,” in the Character Beyond Shakespeare issue of @JEMCStudies https://t.co/zYgxmTxika
