Description

Product Description Shakespeare's Festive Tragedy is a unique look at the social and religious foundations of the tragic genre. Naomi Liebler asks whether it is possible to regard tragic heroes such as Coriolanus and King Lear as `sacrifical victims of the prevailing social order'. A fascinating examination of Shakespearean tragedy, this extraordinary book will provoke excitment and controversy alike. Review "A splendid volume...[Liebler's] readings of Shakespeare's plays are rich in interpretive insights, which are all the more striking in the way they have been situated in a new and highly original theoretical context."-Michael Bristol, McGill University ..."there is much here that is scholastically original and pedagigically useful."-"Early Modern Literary Studies
