Description

Explore the dramatic development of William Shakespeare during the final years of Elizabeth's reign. This Routledge Library Edition offers a deep look at Shakespeare's work against the backdrop of his own era and the theatrical world he inhabited. Originally published in 1933 and republished in 1958, this classic study uses a plain narrative to imagine the life of Shakespeare. The text is supported by historical evidence regarding the stage of that period. While modern critics often look for deeper meanings in his plays, this book focuses on the fundamental reality that Shakespeare wrote to entertain and interest his contemporary audience. By examining the immediate interests of his viewers, this work explains how his writing responded to the world around him. It is an essential read for those studying the history of performing arts, playwriting, and the evolution of the English stage.
