The Cambridge Companion to English Melodrama and Melodrama Unbound are excellent exemplars of a recent turn in melodrama studies toward transmedial, transnational, and trans-historical approaches. The two edited volumes are essential reading for melodrama scholars working in the fields of theatre, film, television, gender studies, and musicology.
