    "Household Servants in Early Modern Domestic Tragedy considerably advances existing scholarship on the institution of service in early modern culture and as represented on the early modern stage.

    Prologue: reading captivity -- Cultures of captivity -- Captivating farce: Aphra Ben's The emperor of the moon -- Domesticating captivity: Richard Steele's The conscious lovers -- Barbary captivity: Penelope Aubin in The noble slaves -- "Indentured slaves": British captivity in Colonial America -- Afterword: domesticating captivity. "This book considers fictional texts by British authors from the Restoration and first half of the eighteenth century in which captivity centrally informs identity, actions, or human relationships for white British subjects.

The book looks at canonical authors such as Aphra Behn, Richard Steele, and Eliza Haywood, as well as popular writers such as Penelope Aubin and Edward Kimber"--
