This week's In Our Time with Melvyn Bragg on BBC Radio 4 is on Elizabethan and Jacobean revenge tragedy. Star players are The Spanish Tragedy, Titus Andronicus and Hamlet, plus a good discussion of Seneca's influence as a tragedian and the differences between revenge plays and the historical plays.
In Our Time is good about keeping old programs available, so I should share that last week's program was The Augustan Age - art and propaganda at the birth of the Roman Empire. I should point out that I haven't had a chance to listen to it yet.
