Product Description
|
To know Shakespeare is to know his plays, not just one by one but all together—or what T. S. Eliot calls “the pattern in his carpet”. But if in view of their quantity a division has to be made, it must be that between Elizabethan and Jacobean. More than we realize, the dramatist was affected by the mind of the monarch, negatively no less than positively, not least in his time of profound religious change—a fact that is sadly ignored by the majority of scholars.
"Fr. Peter Milward is one of the few good and reliable Shakespeare scholars alive today. A world-renowned expert on the Catholic dimension in Shakespeare's works, his latest book, Elizabethan Shakespeare, is a veritable treasure-house of insights into the deeper meanings of the Bard's earlier plays.
