Shakespeare's Global Philosophy

exploring Shakespeare's nature-based philosophy in his sonnets, plays and Globe

Beschreibung

The three parts of Shakespeare’s Global Philosophy present evidence and argument that Shakespeare's Sonnets of 1609 articulate the philosophy behind all his plays and longer poems and that the Globe Theatre symbolises the global significance of the philosophy. Part 1 examines the 1609 edition of the sonnets to demonstrate the presence of a comprehensive and consistent nature-based philosophy. Part 2 shows how Shakespeare uses the sonnet philosophy to structure and vivify all his poems and plays. Part 3 reflects on the relationship between the Globe Theatre and the current global fascination with Shakespeare’s works.

Autor

Roger Peters is an artist, philosopher and writer who lives and works in Taranaki, New Zealand. In 1995, he detected a profound and comprehensive philosophy in Shakespeare's 1609 Sonnets. The depth and scope of the insight explains why Shakespeare's plays and poems are increasingly relevant to today's global audience. Peters presented Shakespeare's nature based philosophy in a 1760-page four-volume set in 2005. This summary volume Shakespeare's Global Philosophy of 344 pages and several others to follow provide further ways to access the understanding. Peters established the Quaternary Institute in 2001 as a pedagogic space for exploring and disseminating the insights arising from Shakespeare's unprecedented achievement.
