Welcome
Welcome to the new website of 'The Thomas Nashe Project'. At the centre of this ambitious project is the new critical edition of the works of Thomas Nashe which will be published by Oxford University Press. Over the next five years, our team will be putting together six volumes of Nashe's writing, from closet drama and erotic poetry, to satire and the early novel. You can read more about plans for the edition and its features here. Running alongside the new critical edition, this website will become a space for additional resources that will help to animate the study of Nashe’s writing. Over the course of the project, we will be adding new research on Nashe and his Elizabethan context, as well as recordings of some of Nashe's work in performance. In 2022 we also launched our follow-on project, 'Penniless? Thomas Nashe and Precarity in Perspective' which uses Nashe's best seller, 'Pierce Peniless' as a lens through which to examine precarious employment in the arts and communications sectors for young people today.
