Time and the Artist in Shakespeare's English HistoriesUniversity of Delaware Press, 1983 - 278 páginas This book is a critical inquiry into Shakespeare's English history plays of the 1590s which poses radical questions about the relationship between dramatic making and historic knowing. What happens, the author asks, when a powerful imagination that transforms everything it touches into present action grapples with the stuff of history? What becomes of the history, and what happens to the drama? What are the history plays? The author seeks to answer these and other fundamental questions. |
