Shakespeare and His ComediesMethuen, 1957 - 207 páginas "The comedies of Shakespeare have received substantially less critical attention than the tragedies or the histories. Dr. Brown's account of the comedies succeeds in isolating the distinctive genre as well as acknowledging the capriciousness and astonishing vitality of invention which Shakespeare brought to it."--Back cover. |
