Description

Explore the complex role of marriage in the works of William Shakespeare with this scholarly study by Lisa Hopkins. Published by Palgrave Macmillan, this book examines how marriage functions across different genres, from the festive conclusions of comedies to the foundations of his tragedies. Lisa Hopkins places Shakespearean marriage within the context of Renaissance culture and ideologies. The text analyzes how marriage serves as a vital element of social structure, much like the concept of kingship. By looking at the history plays, Roman plays, and comedies, this work provides a deep look at how marriage acts as a link between different cycles of drama and a marker of societal differences. This is an essential resource for students and readers interested in the social practices and cultural frameworks found within Shakespearean drama.
