Shakespeare's Comedy of LoveMethuen, 1974 - 272 páginas "Shows that what distinguishes the comedies is not their similarity but their variety - the way in which each play is a new experiment, a new combination of essentially the same ingredients... By approaching each play as an individual work of art, related to its predecessors, but essentially autonomous, the author is able to examine it with the clarity of perception that characterises the best theatrical approaches to Shakespeare (and, indeed, the play in performance is kept in mind throughout). From this examination emerge some surprising and original perspectives."--Back cover. |
