- Summary:
- This collection of essays grapples with timeless problems rather than time-bound movements such as New Historicism and Cultural Materialism, but the essays still admit that problems and movements are linked. Using the problems as a means of focusing more closely upon the plays, these works investigate the building blocks of Shakespearian drama: character, plot, language, genre, response. A new preface places the essays in the context of recent critical debate and a new chapter on Shakespeare's will provides a fascinating insight into his independent spirit.
