Inhaltsangabe

Lively, accessible and innovative, this introduction to Shakespeare's plays is divided into seven subject-based chapters: Character; Performance; Texts; Language; Structure; Sources and History. It promotes active engagement with the plays and proves that there is space for new and fresh thinking, even on the most-studied and familiar plays.

Über diesen Titel

Críticas:

'... a dazzling, reader-friendly tutorial in reading Shakespearean drama.' Emily Bartels, Rutgers University, New Jersey

'I'll be entirely happy to recommend this to students. It's accessible, it's divided up by topic in a way that reflects the different approaches one might take to Shakespeare in class (e.g. structure/genre, historical context), the suggestions for further reading are realistic and helpful and include well-chosen online materials, and it's framed in a way that invites further discussion either in the classroom or in the study.' Tom Rutter, Sheffield Hallam University
