Marjorie Garber

Profiling Shakespeare (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

These essays show the outline of a Shakespeare rather different from the man sought by biographers from his time to our own. They also show the effects, the ephemera, the clues and cues, welcome and unwelcome, out of which Shakespeare's admirers and dedicated scholars have pieced together a vision of the playwright, whether as sage, psychologist, lover, theatrical entrepreneur, or moral authority. This collection of Garber's work brings together classic pieces, hard-to-find chapters, and two new essays.
