"The Elizabethan Stage, Vol. 3" by E. K. Chambers is a historical account written in the early 20th century.

At the start of the work, Chambers introduces the topic of scenic representation in Elizabethan theatre, emphasizing the importance of stage settings to support the complex plots found in contemporary plays. He discusses how various historical influences shaped the standards of staging, from early Renaissance practices to the evolving demands of the audience.
