Description

Explore the deep connection between two literary giants in this essential study from Oxford University Press. Written by a leading Shakespeare scholar, this book provides the first comprehensive account of how Ovid influenced William Shakespeare's most famous works. This study goes beyond simple references to show how Ovid's presence shapes the very foundation of Shakespeare's writing. Readers will discover how Ovidian elements appear throughout the entire Shakespearean canon. The analysis covers narrative poems, pastoral comedies, the Sonnets, and even the mature tragedies. By examining representations of myth, metamorphosis, and sexuality, this book reveals Shakespeare as a sophisticated reader who used Ovidian myth to add depth to his storytelling. This Clarendon Paperback is a valuable resource for students, scholars, and anyone interested in the history and criticism of English drama and poetry.
