- Summary:
- "Reading Shakespeare's Poetry presents a fresh interpretation of Shakespeare's non-dramatic poems, providing insights into the individual poems, their themes and composition, and their relation to the cultural context of Shakespeare's world. With an engaging narrative style, author Dympna Callaghan illustrates the ways Shakespeare's poetry often converges with reality yet remains distinct from dramatic verse and the language of everyday life."-- Provided by publisher.
