DEEP: Database of Early English Playbooks

Welcome!

Since 2007, DEEP: Database of Early English Playbooks has been a crucial resource for the history of printing, publishing, and marketing of early modern playbooks. Now we are excited to announce the launch of a completely revised and updated version of the site:

The new DEEP is faster, more streamlined, and optimized not only for desktop but also for mobile screens. It includes a host of new search capabilities, new functionality, and updates to the data itself, building on and accounting for the huge amount of research into early modern theater and book history over the past decade. These changes and improvements are all described on the Update History page on the new site, which we hope you will spend some time exploring. Please come visit DEEP 2.0 at its new site and update your bookmarks!

This site will be archived in the near future and will no longer function at this URL.
