Shakespeare through Letters

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

This book offers an innovative pathway into Shakespeare’s plays—the letters, although small, impact narrative development, reveal character, and enhance the play’s tone. The author posits that the letters constitute texts that warrant interpretation, as they delineate the intersection of oral and literate cultures.
